Class Experience

Watercolor loving artists unite!  Can't get enough of my watercolor classes?  Neither can I!  During this "summer camp" style class,  we will  meet Monday - Thursday.  Each day we will create a unique summer themed painting. 

Artists will learn how to use basic watercolor painting materials and tools, and occassionally explore options for embellishing our paintings. We will utilize techniques like easy warm-up activities, choosing color schemes, and planning compositions. We will paint a variety of projects based on learner interest: beautiful patterns and motifs, flowers and leaves, insects and critters, and still lifes like fruits and vegetables. Using what we learn each artist will create a unique, masterpiece each day and learn skills to help them paint other projects from their own imagination and inspiration.  

Day 1: Intro to watercolor technique, we will use a variety of techniques and embellishmenst including salt and rubbing alcohol, the class will vote on a technique to use in the following days' classes
Days 2-4: Watercolor projects based on student selected techniques

This class will be scheduled multiple weeks over the course of the summer, artists can enroll for as many weeks as they would like.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Arizona Teaching Certificate
Doctoral Degree from Chapman University School of Law
Hello! I can't wait to learn and share with you! I have a bachelors degree in history, a doctorate in law, and certifications in photography and therepeudic art . I love learning, and teaching others. 

I am a mom to 5 amazing kids, ages 17, 15, 14, 11, and 9. I've taught art classes for over 25 years and have worked with all ages. I am excited to reach out to even more students on this Outschool. I believe with Pablo Picasso that, "Every child is an artist." And my goal as an art teacher is to make sure we all have the desire and confidence to keep being creative and enjoy a life full of learning.  Because just as Picasso said, "The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up." 

I homeschool my 3 youngest children for several years, and now all 5 are home with me. I love teaching them art and history.  I love using my passion for history to teach how the events of our past have shaped our future.  

When I am not teaching, our family travels.  I love to travel to see the original art I study and teach about, and the geography that has inspired artists and influenced our history.
