Pleinair in Pq

I did a little Plein-air painting to get ready for my Japan trip in Jan. It was a lovely day and two of my art friends joined me.

Practice

I always ask my students to practice and we share what we have been doing outside of class.  It’s important to cultivate good art habits not only in class, but in our everyday life.  I like drawing specimens once in awhile at the Nat.  

Painting for myself

I try to make a point to do art for myself so I don’t feel burnt out from only doing art for others or work.  I think it’s important as an artist to keep art feeling fun otherwise what’s the point.

Birthday Painting Party

It was so nice to see my old students for a fun birthday painting party at the park in Mira Mesa.

Art Studio

I have been getting a lot of students lately and I have been enjoying making art with all of them.  Depending on what my students want to learn I adjust my teaching style to hopefully fit with their learning style.     more images on this link  

In-home private art class

I have been taking in-home clients and going all around San Diego to teach art.  I work with student artists with special needs and I get pleasantly surprised by their creativity and skills.  I sometimes feel like Hagrid meeting young wizards in the muggle world.  

Painting Cherry Blossoms

I painted with my student earlier in the week and we did a fun and simple painting of cherry blossoms.  We did this to learn some basics and techniques of painting as a private class and I thought this would be good for the monthly event I have at The Hop Stop.  6:30-8:30pm every first Read more about Painting Cherry Blossoms[…]
