Visual Arts & Passion Projects

I love to paint. I occasionally teach intro to art and intro drawing classes. My goal is to take an art class every year to stay fresh on my skills and to enjoy being a student (since I’m usually the teacher!)

Skills include:

Drawing · Painting · Digital Art · Beginner Printmaking · Beginner Ceramics · Linocuts · Watercolor · Poetry
