I teach cartooning/comic book art to children of all ages. Kids can expect to learn about fun characters, how to make interesting and creative stories, and about comic book panels and visual structure.

*My scheduling availability isn't always accurate, as many students have their lessons with me every other week. My schedule is different from week to week, so it's best to at least pick a time with me and if it doesn't work, we'll make sure we schedule a lesson time that's convenient for both of us. If you need to schedule a lesson for a time sooner than what the TakeLessons calendar allows, you can always let me know and we'll most likely work something out for you.

I've created many cartoons in the context of illustration, comics and 2D animation. My specialty is in expressions, character designs and story-telling.

My mission is to spread this knowledge of cartooning and to help achieve the goals of students.

I began teaching my own virtual art classes separate from my company a few months ago. At the end of last year, I published a children’s book called “Rami the Travel Llama” which is available through Amazon and have since published a second book, “Differences are Great!” I enjoy illustrating children’s books and plan to continue producing and publishing stories starring the characters that I have created. Art is my passion and I love teaching to my young audience. My past students have really enjoyed being in my art classes and I would love to share my experience and love of art with the students of ...

I took drawing lessons many years ago and have been practicing since then. I can help you get all the concepts and foundations to continue mastering this skill.
