No prior class or knowledge is necessary to join at any time.   Although they build a well-rounded art understanding, these classes do stand alone.  

We will paint simple designs using basic shapes, lines and step-by-step instruction. 
After the drawing is complete, we will paint our images with a variety of colors. 
Students do not need painting experience, as we will discuss painting techniques and practice using the paintbrush during each class.
Students will identify colors, shapes and art supplies. 
Student will be encouraged to make creative choices throughout their painting add unique ideas and elements to their paintings.
Students are not required to share, however, are always given time to show and share something about their painting at the end of each class.
We will have an ART-tastic time discussing the qualities of each other's paintings, finding the beauty in unique details.

Hello there! I am an art educator with a Bachelor of Science in K-12 Art Education.  I am also a wife, mom and artist!  I have taught since 2009 in public schools, a charter school and even in private art centers. 

I have a new passion for teaching online.  I truly enjoy bringing my enthusiasm for art into the homes of students.  I aim to boost artistic confidence by providing simple, yet engaging, step-by-step lessons.

I have experience teaching a variety of other subjects and strive to incorporate those core subjects into my art lessons.  I aim to encourage confidence, creativity, empathy and cultural awareness each day!
