Description

I am so happy you are here.

If you always wanted to paint especially in watercolor or gouache then my classes are for you. I often like to combine different mediums and techniques in one lesson. The more you paint and explore the more confidence you will build up.

My classes are for any one, any age, any level.

Sometimes we have these limiting beliefs, (the voices in your head) telling you that you cannot do things and that you have to stick to what you know. I am here to tell you that if you always wanted to paint, you can!

My classes are easy and fun. Basic, with great results.

Art does not have to be complicated. Don't feel nervous. Just start painting.

So lets start creating.
