ZOOM Critique Groups
I have several regularly scheduled critique groups which meet via Zoom.
These sessions are for those who are working independently but would like feedback in the context of a guided and supportive group environment.

Virtual Studio Lessons
This is an opportunity for you to paint without ever leaving your home! If you are a beginner, you can learn the basics of painting in a structured, step-by-step approach. For the intermediate or more advanced painter, it’s a chance to take on new challenges, sharpen your skills, and expand your awareness of possibilities both in technique and content.
Whether more advanced or a beginner, we will work together in a fun and relaxed way – going at a pace that feels right to you. Having one-on-one attention will give you an opportunity to further develop your current work or start painting for the very first time!
Our lessons will be conducted through Zoom (the virtual classroom). Once we establish days and times you would like to meet, I will send you the link and we can begin our adventure in paint together!
