I have been teaching here at Wyzant for three years. The three main subjects that I cover here at Wyzant include animation, drawing, and painting. Outside of teaching, I'm also a Lead 3D Animator at Gadget-Bot/Kaidro.

My educational background includes a Bachelor of Fine Arts with an emphasis in Entertainment Art and Animation. I graduated Magna Cum Laude and as a member of the Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society. After graduating with a BFA, I completed the two year film animation program at AnimSchool with instructors at Disney, Blue Sky, DreamWorks, EA, Sony, and Pixar.

As a tutor, my goal is to inspire art enthusiasts to explore their talents with different traditional art mediums and digital art. I strive to supply students with artistic technique, opportunities to practice what they have learned, and lots of encouragement. Art is fun and exciting whether it be as a hobby, or as a professional. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you might have!

Approved Subjects

Animation

Animation

Currently employed as a Lead 3D Animator at Gadget-Bot/Kaidro. My animation workflow includes starting with a blocking phase in Maya, then continuing to spline and polish.
Autodesk Maya

Autodesk Maya

Currently employed as a Lead 3D Animator at Gadget-Bot/Kaidro. I teach 3D animation in Maya using blocking, spline, and polish workflows.
Drawing

Drawing

Lessons include value, texture, gesture drawing, design principles and elements, line weight exercises, color analysis, character design, and contour drawing. With beginning artists, I find that drawing from a reference is most helpful prior to drawing from imagination and creativity.
Painting

Painting

Lessons include acrylic, gouache, digital, watercolor, and pastels. I enjoy helping artists with color theory, composition, lighting, painting styles, design principles and elements, and workflow.

Handles the lesson very well and explains very well the concepts.

Katherine was very patient with my daughter. she expresses herself very well to make sure kids understood what she was saying. I was able to see progress from the first lesson

Wonderful teacher who inspires my daughter

My 11 year old daughter has had a couple of lessons with Katherine now and looks forward to her lessons each week. Katherine is great about patiently answering all of my daughter’s questions about digital art and works with her on projects that my daughter finds very engaging and interesting. We are so happy we found Katherine!

wonderful teacher!

Our daughter started working with Katherine during the pandemic and has continued to almost 2 almost 3 years later! She is always excited to meet with Katherine every week, and has grown tremendously as an artist over the last couple of years. Katherine is always patient, encouraging, kind and meets our daughter where she’s at in terms of interests and what she wants to draw that week. I’ve really enjoyed watching her grow as an artist these past few years and I’m always excited when she chooses to share her work with me!

Amazing Tutor/Mentor For my 11TH Grader AP ART

My daughter has now had 3 sessions with Katherine. My daughter is developing a fantastic relationship with Katherine, as much a tutor as a mentor. She is not only assisting my daughter in her AP Art class but having her look forward to her needed College Portfolio and discussing possible schools. Following each session Katherine sends a detailed message of what they covered and what my daughter needs to do prior to the next session. We are very lucky/thankful to have found Katherine.

My son loves his drawing class with Kath

My son usually is very nerves when he is new to someone, but he has no such feeling in his first class with Kath. He always told me Kath is very detailed compared to his previous drawing teacher, he loves his drawing class and always is excited when it is time for his drawing class.

Thoughtful lesson

Kathrine did a great lesson with my son. Reviewed several of the pieces that he had drawn, and gave great feedback. Also introduced him to many new concepts that he can continue to work on.

Skilled and Supportive Tutor

Katherine has taught my child to draw. She is a very patient and encouraging teacher. Katherine is extremely supportive to our needs, and my daughter looks forward to her lessons.

Applicable Skills

Katherine has inspired my son to go above and beyond in his lesson focus. Her teachings have crept into his everyday routines, as he applies artistic tips and recommendations into the simplest of drawings. The amount of time that Kat puts into the preparation of these lessons, as well as the effort she puts into post-content and communication allows me to know that we truly found a gem. We feel very fortunate to have Katherine working with our son and look forward to many, many more lessons.
