The Art Doc

I’ve been an artist for as long as I can remember. My journey started in childhood eventually growing into a successful career. Along the way, I fell deeply in love with botanical illustration, the rhythmic satisfaction of linocut printmaking, and the quiet joy of making hand-bound books when I realized how beautifully these mediums speak to each other. I love showing students how accessible and joyful these art forms can be, especially when you’re willing to experiment and even combine them in unexpected ways.Teaching has always been one of the most rewarding parts of my creative life. There’s something magical about watching a student’s confidence spark when a technique finally feels natural, or when they see their own style emerging. Whether someone is picking up a brush for the first time or returning to art after years away, I strive to create a calm, encouraging space where they can relax, learn, and surprise themselves.I hold a BFA in Studio Art, along with a few other degrees, and have taught art for over twenty years, guiding hundreds of students of all ages. My artwork has been exhibited in shows across the United States, and I continue to stay active in both teaching and creating. Over the years I’ve taught thousands of students — in classrooms, studios, online, and now through workshops like these. My goal is to make art accessible, joyful, and something anyone can learn, no matter where they’re starting from.
