This program is intended for Artists of ANY level who are looking for intensive study and directed exchange with a professional artist in an encouraging environment. Students will be invited to share with the instructor their intentions, hopes, and expectations for guidance in the making of their own work. During this exchange, the student determines what most interests and inspires them.
This tutorial-based learning will consist early on of conversations leading to both parties better understanding the student’s goals for their unique artistic practice and viewpoint. Sessions will be devoted to reviewing and critiquing, analyzing various possibilities going forward, and assignments that will assist the student’s rapid development. There will also be demonstrations and hands-on exercises.
All art skill levels welcome.

This is an intensive-study class aimed towards guiding young artists in creating art, craft and design portfolios. The workshop will focus on building skills and identifying student’s individual strengths, creativity and potential in order to assemble a portfolio for presentation for college admissions, scholarships and extracurricular activity. An emphasis will be placed on positivity and support.
Upon the outset of the class, an in-depth review of each student’s work will be conducted so his/her unique ‘voice’ can be understood and, most importantly, guided and customized to their particular needs and hopes. There will be group and individual discussions as well as presentations, demonstrations, and individually directed exercises that are intended to inspire, help build skills, and enrich each student’s experience.
All art skill levels welcome.
