Classes, Workshops, and Private Lessons
I offer after-school in-person art class, art workshops, and private lessons.
Art Workshops focus on a specific theme or art skill over several weeks. Depending on the workshop length, they include a series of 1-5 projects. Workshops are a great way to sample different themes or art skills.
Don’t see a Workshop to match your needs and interests? Contact me about Small Group or Individual private lessons. We will schedule a time to discuss your interests and abilities, then tailor lessons just for you.
All classes are held in my teaching studio (which spills onto the driveway on warm days) in Bloomington, Indiana.

Project-focused workshops
Project-focused Workshops lead students through a series of projects related to a theme.
Projects begin with discussion of artwork or a book related to the theme, followed by brainstorming and skill-building activities.
Students usually complete intermediate projects over multiple sessions.
Projects build on one another, becoming more complex and layered.
For the final project, students incorporate their own interests and passions while applying new skills.
Workshops meet weekly for 3-8 weeks.

Technique-focused Workshops
Technique-focused Workshops build specific techniques by progressing through a series of projects.
Discussion of artwork introduces each new skill.
Students learn skills step-by-step while completing a series of intermediate projects.
The final project pulls all the skills and elements of the intermediate projects together.
The final project provides students the greatest opportunity for including their own interests and ideas.

Private or Small Group Lessons
If the workshops don’t meet your needs or match your interests, we work together to determine your artistic interests and needs, then tailor lessons to match.
Lessons will be ongoing and we will continually consult to determine the next themes and skills to focus on as we plan projects.
