You may
now have art lessons in the privacy and comfort of your own home,
or in my studio. Your choice.
The benefit
of having a one-on-one teacher is directly relevant to improving your
skills as an artist.
Some
folks do very well in a typical classroom environment while others
have a preference for immediacy, in their progress. Kind of like your
own, personal trainer in the art world.
Whether
in my home studio, in the Gage Park area of Hamilton,
or in the privacy of your own home studio/corner-of-the-room, you
have my attention, when you need it.
If you
are a rank beginner or professional designer, I can show you the way
to manipulate colour, form and line, to improve your academic art
skills. I start where you feel comfortable. If simple line drawing
in pencil or pen is all you desire, it is just as rewarding as any
other medium. Watercolour or Acrylic, again, it's your choice.
If you
wish to paint in oils on canvas, as I do, there are many little tricks
and basic applications I can demonstrate to help improve your style.
My approach to teaching art is to let students travel in the direction
of their choice. I guide the student through the basics of solid academic
and fundamentals, recognized in all traditional schools of art. I
do not insist that anyone copy my particular style or content etc.
Each artist shows individuality in the work. That is what makes art
and the process fun and intriguing.
I simply
offer a less crowded environment.
Please
observe my particular style of painting and drawing.
If you think it valid and professional enough for your needs,
call me and let's discuss your particular requirements, time etc.
