Hello! I’m Molly, and I’m a professional artist and certified art teacher based out of Raleigh, NC. I have 18+ years of experience teaching art to students of all ages and experience levels. I believe creativity plays a vital role in self-expression and personal growth, and I’m dedicated to helping students discover their inner voice and develop their artistic talents. ‌

With a Bachelor's degree in Art Education and a certification in AP Portfolio Prep, I’ve taught art to students in public schools, summer camps, paint-n-sip studios, and through one-on-one private lessons. My favorite aspect of teaching is seeing the joy in someone’s eyes once they grasped a new skill and created something they are proud of, and ensuring each person I work with is comfortable in the process of achieving improvement is my highest priority. ‌

I’m adept at tailoring lesson plans to individual student needs, ensuring that each session is engaging, relevant, and challenging. Painting and drawing are my specialties, but I’m also experienced working with most 2D and 3D mediums, and can provide guidance about art history, portfolio preparation, mural making, and the business side of being a professional artist. ‌

Throughout my teaching career, I’ve witnessed the profound impact art can have on students' lives - fostering self-empowerment, enhancing problem-solving skills, and improving visual literacy. I’m excited to be part of Wyzant, where I can provide personalized guidance and connect with aspiring artists around the world. If you're looking for an experienced and dedicated art teacher who can help you reach your creative goals, I’d be delighted to work with you! ‌

Please don't hesitate to contact me to discuss your specific tutoring needs - I look forward to hearing from you and contributing my guidance to your creative journey! ‌ My own artwork has been shown at galleries, shows, and festivals all over the southeast US.

Drawing

Drawing

I’m a professional artist and certified art educator with 18+ years of teaching experience. I graduated from college with a B.S. in Art Education and with a concentrated focus on Life Drawing. I’ve taught workshops on portraiture, still life, figure drawing, and “sight drawing” - a process of drawing from life in which one utilizes a drawing utensil for accurately rendering proportion and angles. When teaching others how to draw, I favor methods and perspectives developed by Dr. Betty Edwards that have been proven to be resoundingly effective for artists of all ages.
Painting

Painting

I’ve been a professional painter for 10+ years and my work has been exhibited at festivals, galleries, and events all over the southeastern United States. Hand painted acrylic on canvas is my main medium but I’m also experienced with oil paints, watercolors, airbrush, spray paint, mixed media, and mural making. In addition to working as a professional artist, I’m a certified art educator with 18+ years of teaching experience, which includes 5 years of teaching painting classes weekly from a studio based in Raleigh, NC, US.
