artmaking
classes/workshops for adults and children
children, high school students,
college students, professional artists, and hobbyists - all
receive the same respect and level of commitment from me

voice
via learning about the formal aspects of artmaking
and being introduced to
a large selection of images by a range of historical and contemporary
artists
I offer a variety of workshops
