My name is Robin. I'm a professional working artist showing in Chelsea and a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design. I'm offering lessons to children, teenagers or adults interested in developing their creative abilities. These private or group lessons can be directed to meet your individual needs. I teach painting, drawing, college portfolio preparation, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. Whether you are a student, an amateur artist, photographer, designer, or illustrator, I can help you master the tools you will need to take your craft to the next level. Interested in learning a new skill? I can teach you fundamental observational drawing and painting skills, while also honing your strengths and developing your unique point of view. Interested in working digitally? I'll teach you how to retouch photographs, design logos or paint digitally. If your teen is applying to art school, I'll review their work, assess where improvement is needed, and help to build a strong portfolio and application. I will tailor lessons specifically toward your child's interests and abilities, including trips to libraries, museums, or galleries. I am able to host lessons in my studio in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, or I'm happy to come to you! Private art lessons were an invaluable part of my early art training, and were well worth the investment. They can also be an excellent way to keep your mind and spirit active and engaged with the world around you. Let's get started!
