Tired of cut and paste art craft projects?

Need to take your art teaching to the next level?

I offer a variety of art classes and delivery methods. I teach from my studio as well as the Sagebrusher studio, I do residencies in schools or for large groups and I have a You Tube channel for those of you outside of the central Oregon area. Please scroll down to find the option best for you!

I have a California and an Oregon art teaching credential. I have taught high school to preschool and even adults! I love to encourage others to find their own artist voice. So all the projects have many creative choices, either in material selection, design or mark making, each artists is encouraged to do it the way they feel it! There is no mistake in art. It is a process. All my lesson will incorporate components of art history and appreciation, as well as production. Many of them are integrated with other disciplines. I believe art is no different from the other subjects we teach, it begins with the fundamentals. All lesson will focus on 1 or more of the art elements and or principles of design. For artists looking for a deeper more one on one coaching style class, please contact me for availability.

Home and After school Art Sessions

Private and group classes can be arranged with me  so the days and times can best serve you. That way we can work together to create a very open learning experience of exploring and discovery. My teaching style encourages artists to find their own styles and form of expression, while learning the art elements and principles. If you have a student or group who wants to enrich their learning and creative spirit, please contact me to schedule a class and for more information. Pricing is based on the number of students and the type of supplies. Private classes are usually 1.5 hours at 45$ (depending on materials.) Group classes are limited to 8 students and cost is based on the number of participants and time.
