 Painting is one of my top subjects!I teach the tools and skills to paint from life, from foundation level to advanced. Working from still life, the landscape and possibly any subject matter that interests the student, we will learn how to translate what we see into convincing and successful renditions in oil paint, acrylic, or pastel. We'll start with basic painting skills, developing acurate measurement, understanding color, edge, and composition, and move on to tackling ambitious projects, capturing a convincing sense of light, and playing with the poetics of painting. One-on-one attention is given in a supportive and creative atmosphere.
I received my Bachelor of Arts in both Studio Art and Psychology from Brandeis University, Boston, and continued my studies for two years at the Jerusalem Studio School in Jerusalem, Israel, as a member of the Master Class with Israel Hershberg. I then received my Master of Fine Arts from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia and went on to teach at the Delaware College of Art and Design,Swarthmore College and Cornell College, as well as offering private lessons to all ages. I currently teach art online for the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. My teaching style is encouraging and stimulating. I love what I do and I really enjoy sharing my knowledge with others. I instruct specifically to the level of the student: from beginner to highly advanced. I've also been told that I'm pretty funny but you'll have to make up your own mind about that.
