Why I Teach

 

I started sharing my lessons online because I had to learn so much, painfully, on my own. I believe anyone can learn to paint, but most art instruction today is either too abstract or unnecessarily complicated.

I don’t believe you need a degree to paint well.

What you need is structure, discipline, and a simpler way to start.

My teaching is designed for painters at every stage.

Three paths to explore:

Online mentorship community.
Weekly live sessions, personalized feedback, and a supportive group of painters learning together.

Self-paced online courses.
Programs to guide your growth step by step through structured lessons focused on specific skills.

Intensive in-person workshops.
Immersive experiences in inspiring locations from castles in Tuscany to New York City Studios.
