Learn my process

Instruction for artist students of all ages and abilities

My unique techniques of paper collage narratives in combination with transparent paint is something I created in my studio over 15 years ago and I've never looked back.  I love working in this mixed media approach with it's endless possibilities of expression and constant challenge.  I teach in person and virtual workshops that teach my process.  Whether you are a beginner and are curious or are an advanced art student, you will gain a new perspective on mixed media as a form of personal expression, tips and tricks for compelling compositions, and tried and true painting methods that will make your landscapes come alive.    For first dibs on upcoming workshops, sign up for my email list. 

the business of art

If you are an artist who is also running a business, I've got in-person and virtual workshops for that too!  I've been running on my own art business for 12 years and each year, I'm growing and learning. In 2021, I went from barely squeaking by with a profit to bringing in quadruple the amount I had done previously.  And I'm not done growing yet!  Making your art for a living is absolutely possible and I have put together several workshops that address some of the major hurdles artists face:  marketing, time management, talking about their art, understanding their art, offering commissions, and feelings of lingering resentment toward  having to run a business AND make art.
