Greetings! My name is Tim and I can't wait to get you started on the awesome journey of visual arts! I've been teaching private lessons since 2014 and have loved helping my students with the basics of creative problem-solving, understanding different workflows, and how to achieve their desired results. I went to Full Sail University and earned a degree in Digital Arts & Design in 2016. I'm just your friendly neighborhood art guy who has a passion for teaching. I also understand that no two students are the same, so I catered to the individual needs of my students. Stay inspired, be creative, and I look forward to our journey ahead!

I'm Mr. Joey and I love art and I love teaching art! I am a graduate of The Art Institute and an artist and animator that creates art in pencil, charcoal, pastel, watercolor, and digital mediums.

Classes I teach are:
• Drawing Fundamentals
• Advanced Drawing
• People and Anatomy
• Portrait Drawing
• Cartoon Characters for Animation
• Character Design
• 2D Animation
• Digital Painting in Photoshop
• Digital Animation
Please view samples of my work and contact me with any questions you may hav

About Cory B.
CloseAbout Cory
It all started as a child, and I didn't even know it. I always looked for what I used to call "The Postcard Scene" in any situation. I kept an eye out for that in everything I did and every where I went. Slowly but surely, I came to realize I had been training my eyes for photography.
I eventually started getting into the technical side of it with Nikon and became Master Certified for Nikon on that front. I was a product and technical advisor for the local clientele from the news stations to portrait/studio photographers and even gallery photographers. I eventually started branching out on my own, creating my ow portfolio and loving every second of it, from designing shots to post-processing them.
I love all things creative and all aspects of photography, but if I had to choose a favorite style, it would be a hard choice between Landsca

I love all things creative and all aspects of photography, but if I had to choose a favorite style, it would be a hard choice between Landsca
pe and Nature. I love the unique, unusual perspectives as well as the problem-solving aspects of capturing what I experience during that Sunset, or that day of Trailblazing.
I want to share my thoughts and theories with you too, as well as teach you the technical side of it. Photography is very personal and a form of art, let me help you start or move ahead in your journey in this amazing world of photography.
