In my dynamic hour-long sessions, we delve into the exciting world of art through a vibrant, video-based method that champions a *learn-by-doing* philosophy! Here’s how our fantastic classes operate:
A Blend of Insight and Practice!
We kick things off with a 10-minute video lecture that sets the stage for our artistic journey, providing you with invaluable tips and techniques! Following the video, you'll have 35 minutes to unleash your creativity, drawing from a curated package of practice files and live model photos. This is where the magic happens—putting theory into practice! After an invigorating session of drawing, we take a refreshing 5-minute break; and what’s next? 15 minutes of one-on-one evaluation and mentorship! This personal touch is all about guiding you, offering feedback, and helping you refine your skills!
Think of this as your personal coaching moment—where we celebrate your progress and strategize on how to elevate your art even further!
With over 20 years of hands-on experience as a fine artist and painter, teaching across the globe from K-12 to college levels, I’ve had the amazing opportunity to witness students—much like you—transform their skills! Many have gone through the standard 12-class course and returned for even more advanced study, which fills me with joy!
Who Can Join?
These classes are designed for anyone aged 6 to 106 who is passionate about art and eager to learn! No prior knowledge or degrees are necessary—just a desire to explore your creativity! All you need are basic art supplies like a drawing pad and pencils. Whether you're seeking a new hobby or aiming to enhance your work/life balance, this is the perfect space for you to thrive!
Together, let’s embark on this creative adventure and unlock your artistic potential! I’m here to support you every step of the way!

Dan has worked with me as I explore portraiture and figure drawing, and I really value both his personal observations and his patient review of basics I’ve tended to skip. He’s helped me step out of my "artsy" sauce and engage with the fundamentals of observation, volume, and shadow in a way that’s been supportive rather than corrective. This shift has made a huge difference in my drawing.
Dan is an amazing teacher! I began lessons with him over a year ago now after I found him on a different website. I began with absolutely no background in visual art of any variety and my confidence and skill level has increased considerably as I’ve learned to “think visually.” His lessons are structured enough to allow you to focus in on a specific skill each week, so you don’t feel lost or out of your depth, but are still flexible enough to adapt to your learning pace and particular interests.
