Oil Painting Lessons in Westlake Village. Amazing Teachers.

I make my lessons fun and let my students explore their creativity rather than adhere to strict teaching methods. I even create a dedicated playlist based on each student's preference and play it during each session.

My focus in on teaching kids and parents of my current students have reported a decrease in their child's anxiety level, specially during the pandemic. One of my students who claims to be sporty and was not initially interested about painting, asked her mom after our 3rd session if she could have class twice a week instead of once : )

Experienced teacher of 5 years, specializing in the beginner/intermediate painting student. All ages are welcome. With curriculum building experience as a previously certified Art teacher, I have the expertise to cater to any type of ability or age of student. Lessons are customized and catered to the needs/goals of each student. Not only will you be painting like you've been doing it your whole life in no time, but you will be building a strong foundational knowledge of composition, color theory, masters techniques, optimal materials, and much more. Let's get started!

As a professional artist and educator I will help you take your work to the next level! I specialize in teaching classical oil painting methods, including both the "alla prima" direct technique as well as the more academic indirect method. No matter whether you are a complete beginner or have some experience, we'll customize a structured plan to help you reach your goals. Take a look at examples of my work and student work on my profile and let's get started today!

Painting is a great stepping stone into the world of color and I love taking you into that new world.
