Visual Artist and Waldorf trained Art and Art History Teacher

New York City

  • Making art supports strengthening good habits while having fun, like learning to picture mentally what cannot be directly observed
  • I teach Visual Art as an universal language and have ways especially for Multi Language Learners
  • Art is learning to embrace challenges within the art and beyond and to develop focus and creative thinking and problem solving in making a piece.

I deliver personalized programs for all ages that include: Instruction in art techniques, instruction in art history, instruction in talking about art, access to art supplies and art exhibits. As an experienced practicing visual teaching artist and Waldorf trained art and art history educator I teach high-quality, inquiry based, standards-driven individualized curricula, while providing a nurturing and inspiring environment where every student can discover, explore, and reflect on ideas and concepts that can positively impact their everyday lives. In-Person instructions are individualized to the needs of students such as short and long term practical art classes K-12 and art history education for 6-12 for homeschool groups, senior groups and individuals during the regular school day and after school, 8am-6pm, portfolio preparation, party art project services for all ages, including English and German Language Learners.
