About Me

Hi, I’m Dustin! I specialize in making art fun, accessible, and confidence-building for young artists ages 5-12. With over 500 glowing five-star reviews, parents consistently praise my patient and encouraging teaching style, while students love the interactive, exciting atmosphere in my classes. My goal is to help every child unlock their creativity and feel proud of their progress.

What Makes My Classes Unique?

My daily drawing classes use simple, kid-friendly materials like crayons and butcher paper, making them perfect for artists of all skill levels. Each session is a fresh adventure, inspired by student suggestions and tailored to their interests. Whether we’re drawing a favorite animal, a superhero, or something from their imagination, every child contributes to the creative journey.

I focus on step-by-step techniques to ensure every student can follow along while fostering creativity, problem-solving, and self-expression. My classes are about more than just drawing—they’re about building skills, confidence, and a lifelong love for art.

Why Families Choose My Classes

Parents and students often tell me my classes stand out because of:
	•	Engagement and Positivity: My welcoming, lighthearted approach ensures kids feel excited and comfortable.
	•	Individualized Attention: Even in group settings, I prioritize making every student feel heard, supported, and celebrated.
	•	Proven Success: Students gain noticeable skills and confidence, which keeps them coming back class after class.

One parent shared:
“Mr. Dustin is an amazing drawing teacher! He is patient, kind, and has a great sense of humor. My son adores his class and always looks forward to the next session. His skills have improved so much!”

Join Our Creative Community

As a teacher with years of experience, including working with children on the autism spectrum, I know how to make every child feel seen, valued, and capable. Whether your child is a budding artist or simply loves to draw, I’m excited to help them explore their creativity and grow. Together, we’ll create something amazing!

Class Policies

	1.	Class Length: Classes may occasionally run a few minutes over to allow for individual attention, but they will never end early.
	2.	Punctuality: Classes start on time. If your learner is late, they can catch up by watching the recording.
	3.	Attendance: If no students are present, I’ll stay in the classroom for 10 minutes before concluding the session.
	4.	Classroom Etiquette:
	•	Students stay muted during the lesson to reduce distractions.
	•	Siblings may watch, but only enrolled children may participate.

Refunds and Transfers

If you need to reschedule, please submit a transfer request at least 24 hours before the class begins to allow others time to enroll. While I cannot offer refunds for unused or misunderstood coupons, I’m happy to issue a replacement coupon for a future class. Life happens, and I’ll do my best to accommodate you whenever possible!
