I’m a traditionally trained artist with a focus on realism, specializing in drawing and painting from life. I recently completed an intensive figure drawing workshop and previously studied portrait painting at Grand Central Atelier, a renowned institution known for its classical techniques. These experiences have deepened my understanding of anatomy, proportion, value structure, and the fundamentals of realist portraiture.
In addition to my training, I’ve sold several original paintings (5–7 to date), which has given me real-world insight into the creative and professional aspects of being a working artist. I enjoy guiding students through the artistic process—whether they're just starting to learn how to see and draw accurately or working on refining more advanced skills. I tailor my approach based on the student’s goals, with a focus on building confidence and a strong technical foundation.
My teaching experience includes one-on-one instruction with students ranging from teens to adults, both informally and in structured learning environments. I emphasize observational skills, clear structure, and thoughtful feedback in every session. Whether you're looking to improve your figure drawing, strengthen your portfolio, or learn the principles of oil painting, I’m excited to help you reach your artistic goals.
