Art lessons

Paint with a master artist in San Diego

I teach students how to think
and create independently.

I give them tools — not formulas — so they can build their own work with confidence.

          Students gain:

  • A Clear Painting Structure
    How to build a work step by step — from idea and composition to a finished piece.
  • Stronger Visual Thinking
    How to analyze reference, simplify forms, and make intentional decisions.
  • Confident Use of Color
    Understanding color relationships, temperature, and harmony — not guessing.
  • Composition Skills
    How to organize space, balance elements, and create focus.
  • Brushwork & Paint Handling
    Control, looseness, and expressive mark-making without overworking.
  • Independent Problem-Solving
    How to fix a painting and adjust when something isn’t working.
  • Personal Artistic Direction
    Support in developing their own voice instead of copying someone else’s style.

Painting has been my full-time profession for nearly 20 years. I teach private lessons, workshops, and personal mentoring, helping artists build confidence, understand color and composition, and create paintings with their own voice rather than copying formulas.

I’m currently developing a series of online painting classes, making my teaching available to students worldwide.
