Art Classes

Art Instruction for All Ages

Whether you’re a seasoned artist, a curious beginner, or a 3-year-old with a big imagination, art is for everyone! My goal is to make the creative process fun, engaging, and accessible for all ages and skill levels.

As a working artist and art instructor with over 20 years of experience in Putnam & Westchester County, I’ve taught students ranging from preschoolers to seniors. I offer classes for individuals, groups, families, and students with special needs, ensuring an inclusive, welcoming space for creative exploration.

One of my favorite specialty classes combines seniors and young children—bridging generations through the joy of artistic expression.

Painting, Drawing & Sculpture Classes

A famous combination class - all ages - all levels! Explore traditional and contemporary techniques in painting, drawing, and sculpture.

Learn how to work with:
🖌 Painting: Acrylic, oil, watercolor—understand color theory, blending, and brush techniques.
✏ Drawing: Charcoal, graphite, ink—improve shading, proportion, and perspective.
🗿 Sculpture: Clay, stone, wire, wax, wood, and found objects—shape, carve, and construct your vision in 3D.

Let’s get creative with fun, hands-on projects designed for young artists!
🎨 Mixed Media: Experiment with textures, layers, and unconventional materials.
✏ Drawing: Develop fine motor skills and confidence with simple sketching exercises.
🖼 Collage: Combine colors, textures, and images to tell a visual story.
