Classes
I have been an instructor for 15 years and counting, working with students in-person and online. The connections I have made with students over the years have been such a gift! Watching their skills develop over time has been truly my pleasure! Here are examples of some of the courses I offer in-person at Pencil & Wool and online through the Lyme Art Association.
Drawing Basics
Beginning with drawing in graphite, students learn about values -dark, mid tones and lights- using ribbons to illustrate these concepts.
Drawing in Colored Pencil
Using artist grade colored pencil, students advance to single flower drawing using careful observational skills and drawing from a live subject.
Botanical Dissection
Teaching plant dissection brings me up close, (like with a microscope close!) to the inner workings of plants. Inspecting and drawing plant parts that closely has given me an even greater appreciation for nature and all its small miracles!
Classes at Pencil & Wool
I also teach in-person classes at my store, Pencil & Wool. Some of our class offerings include watercolor painting, rug hooking, needle felting, colored pencil...the list goes on! Check out our full list of workshops here.
