Hello! My name is Junyi, and I'm excited to see you!
Spreading the joy of drawing and painting has always been a great pleasure of mines. I offer art classes in traditional realistic painting and drawing techniques online. Students of all levels are welcome.

Drawing is seeing.
Learning how to draw is the undergoing the "brain transformation" from how we view and interact with the elements and principles of art.
Everyone has a story and desire to be more creative in the right setting to learn.

I’ve been teaching for a year and welcome students of all levels! My lessons are all about training your eye and mastering the foundational elements of art so you can draw anything from life our you imagine. I bring lots of practical techniques and old school methods introduced in a modern way that takes into account the interest of my students and keeps the learning fresh and fun.

At all of my lessons I introduce the works of an established modern or classical artist that either exemplifies the lesson of the day or is someone whose work or life story I think my student might find interesting. We don’t just learn how to draw or paint but also learn how to talk about art and make it more a part of your everyday life.
