I love art! I've always loved drawing and creating with whatever I could get my hands on.  It soothes me down to my very core.  It's my meditation. It's my escape from the every day stresses of life! I love creating! I had zero idea what to do with my creative bug, so I became an art teacher, and I taught in public schools from 2007-2019.

After teaching art to children in public school for many years, I'd been dreaming of ways I could teach outside the classroom, and then I found Skillshare! I love this place so much and love learning at my own pace from so many amazing artists and professionals. I now have 7 classes for you to watch and am working on more for 2020 including a class on how to draw what you see.

My favorite medium right now is digital as it's portable, quick, easy, and so much fun to see people mesmerized at what I can accomplish on the iPad!

While teaching art, I learned more about the content and techniques than I ever did while being a student, so these classes are also a selfish pursuit into learning more about what I can do as an artist and honing my own skills right along with you! I love seeing your projects that you post in my classes and on Instagram!

You can find me and more of my work by visiting my Website and following me on Instagram.

I'm super excited to share my newest class with you: Create an Amazing 3D Letter in Procreate! It is full of the latest techniques in Procreate and includes free Procreate Brushes, including an exclusive halftone brush from the amazing Abbie Nurse, a true Procreate Ninja!
