Art Classes

Art classes

I received some exciting news towards the end of last year that my old employer, DeSerres, wanted to hire me as an English speaking art teacher for their virtual studio. Beginning the end of February 2022, I will be teaching a few classes a month that I get to choose and design myself! My first class is botanical watercolour illustration where we’ll be learning how to paint bleeding hearts using a photo reference.

My botanical watercolour: bleeding hearts class is scheduled to take place on February 28th, 2022.

The classes will range from beginner to intermediate and cover an abundance of subject matters. The first few classes will be in watercolour however I plan on expanding to all sorts of 2D media including graphite and ink drawing, soft pastel, charcoal, and different kinds of paint.

You can sign up for my classes here probably sometime in the next week or two.

My upcoming watercolour beetle illustration class will take place in March.

Pet Portraits

miscellaneous

My pets have always been very dear to me. Creating portraits of them is a way to capture their diverse characters on paper. And to remember them if they’ve passed.

I started doing pet portraits for people as a business last year in the fall. I have drawn and painted pets of all shapes and sizes. I work in a variety of media including but not limited to soft pastel, gouache, watercolour, and charcoal.
