Class experience

In this fun class, we will use our drawing skills to create the foundation drawing for our paintings.

We will explore a variety of subjects for...

My name is Lynda Diamond. I teach art to children, teens and adults. My painting and drawing classes focus on an exploration of line, colour and content drawing objects such as flowers or fruit to abstract geometric shapes. My Art History classes explore the different ways art has evolved and influenced our lives. I hold a BFA in painting from The San Francisco Art Institute. I attended The San Francisco Art Institute as a scholarship student. I have taught children, teens and adults painting and drawing for thirteen years, as an independent teacher. I offer a variety of class options. These options are one-day classes, ongoing and eight-week courses. I often teach art privately. I have taught college-level painting classes at Nova Scotia Community College. For two years, I taught online ESL and drawing to learners in China. My art classes are always light-hearted in spirit. I believe that learning to paint and draw is great fun! My art students always want to return for more classes because my classes are so enjoyable. I am now teaching Art History classes too! I am uniquely qualified to teach Art History as the techniques I use in my own art-making come from great artists from the past. Here's an interesting note about me. I wanted to study with a great painter that lives in Norway. One day I flew to Norway. Luckily, I watched this master painter paint and learned so much from him. I will always be grateful for this experience and the skills I learned. Arts educator, Lynda Diamond
