Drawing Lessons in Sopchoppy. Amazing Teachers.

From a rough sketch to a finished drawing, you can learn to 'SEE WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT', and bring your drawings to life.

Took 4 years of art in high school, including drawing: creative, or precise, drawing. Can assist with devleoping drawing skills.

I am a classically trained artist and I teach traditional methods of representational drawing. I’ve taught at several local ateliers as well as internationally through the State Department’s Art In The Embassies program. I can help you learn about perspective, line, volume, and composition in an a way that is easy to understand. My teaching style is rich with experience and information but also very low key and unintimidating. Also— I’m really fun! Come draw with me!

I provide my students with the techniques to discover the materials and processes to advance their skills and build confidence in their abilities. The techniques are fun and meet each student where there are so they can enjoy every progressing step forward.

BFA and MFA degrees. I have been teaching drawing for over 20 years. My students vary from those who seek to become great artists, to those who need to use drawing to develop their ideas and creativity for other fields such as science, architecture, engineering, etc.
I take my students through all the essentials they need to develop their skills and reach their goals.

In my classes you can expect to learn both the basics and advanced material:
-Painting realistic skin tones, composition,using a grisaille and verdaccio, glazing, methods and materials of the Old Masters, achieving a likeness in portraiture, accurate color mixing and matching, the use and preparation of painting mediums, translating what you see or envision onto the canvas successfully and much more. I enjoy teaching people that are passionate about art, regardless of their skill level.
