Check out my classes!
Below you'll find all the information needed to start/continue your artistic journey. I am teaching at three different schools, five days per week. I'm at CCA for three classes on Mondays, an evening class on Thursdays, and I monitor the open drawing class on Tuesday nights. I'll be at the Farmstead on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. And you'll find me at HAM teaching two classes on Wednesdays, and a beginners class on Friday afternoons. On Friday evenings starting in June I'll be teaching a drawing class at the Art Students League in New York (Whew!).
I'm sorry to say that I will no longer be able to give private lessons on the weekends until further notice. Please look at the information below, and contact the appropriate schools for more info and/or to register. Hope to see you in class soon!
