Find Private Acrylic Painting Lessons

As my student you will learn very important basic to intermediate foundation knowledge of the painting process. This involves Color theory, canvas preparations (wood, Canvas and other substrate choices), Brush selections, Mediums and thinning, Paint storage and reusing. We will work on transferring ideas from still life or sketch to canvas. We will cover brush stroke effects, blending, highlighting and work processes for an efficient and most importantly fun workflow.

Lessons would be individualized to focus on areas that need the most guidance.

I have been painting for several years and I have studied many techniques.

I have been teaching professionally for five years with both small children and adults in many different platforms. My students can expect to develop skills of sketching in paint, rendering objects realistically, color theory, color mixing, texturing and blending, and building contrast. I work with you, where you're at, and develop my lesson plans custom to your individual needs. My students and I always have a blast and make the learning experience fun.

I've been teaching art - painting for 4+ years and my students have gone on to be art majors. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to create basic acrylic paintings. You must have access to the following tools available for your lessons: acrylics, canvas, paintbrushes. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

From realism and abstract to self portraiture and landscapes, I can help you create whatever you can think of! Acrylic is my specialty but I am trained with oil, watercolor, gouache, and inks.

Whether you want specific training for a larger piece or want to learn new skills, any size or shape, I can help!
