What to Expect in my Art Classes
Always an avid student myself, I now have the privilege of helping guide other artists in the direction of exciting new pathways and illuminating different perspectives that are possible within their own art.
Every class or workshop I teach, even every YouTube video I've yet to make, I want you to walk away from knowing a little bit more about how to get the results you want in your own art.
My goal is less to tell you how I create my art, and more to distill the thought processes that you can use to evolve your own practice into a better form of itself.
AT THE END OF THE DAY,
YOU DON'T WANT SOMEONE TO TELL YOU HOW TO PAINT LIKE THEM,
YOU WANT SOMEONE TO HELP YOU
PAINT LIKE YOU, BUT BETTER.
Where I teach:
I like to offer different class types, platforms, and opportunities to meet each student's unique availability, learning behavior, or physical location. Local to the Berkshires? Try an in-person class! Learn better at home or at your own pace? I recommend one of my online offerings!
Sign Up!
A versatile approach to the art of watercolor painting, this class will familiarize students with supplies, theory, and techniques. Practicing washes and brushwork, students will learn about water control and working with their paints. We'll slowly expand the skills covered to include more subtle and nuanced techniques each week. By the end of the class students should have a foundation to pursue watercolor techniques in a variety of methods. This class is open to new and continuing students.

Watercolor Valentines
Sign up for Snowscapes
A one-session class focused on the application of watercolors using just one color. In this class you’ll create a landscape composition using only one color of watercolor paint (choose between dark blue, brown, or black). By not having to think about color, you’ll be able to better focus on getting the right shades or value, making this a great workshop for beginners and practicing students alike!
In the event that BAC has to cancel class due to weather or facility emergencies, please note the pre-scheduled makeup date for this workshop will be Tuesday, March 7.

Level Up on SkillShare
I like to think of my classes on Skillshare as studio-basics. Based on thought processes and foundational concepts, they'll get your creative gears turning.
