Many of my students are coming to school with the feeling that they failed out of art in middle school. Students stepping into the studio for the first time assume that their inability to draw a stick figure makes it inappropriate for them to be there. That’s why I’ve made it my priority in the first month of drawing class to inspire confidence.

My Foundational Drawing class, attended by a mix of ninth-graders through post-graduates, is designed to cover a few key technical and structural skills as well as five to six different types of subject matter. My goal is to introduce students to new ideas and concepts, and to show them just how creative and capable they truly are.
