Private Art Lessons
I'm so proud of all the hard work at the outside art table! Check out our seasonal shows,
and sign up for Art Lessons.
Engage the Senses
Programs for every age and ability, both adults and children welcome!
Private lessons are professionally tailored to your needs. Lesson time usually includes drawing warm up exercises, medium techniques, in-depth subject studies, color theory, and art history.
Take a sojourn in the field and studio...The foundation of all our classes, workshops and camps began with private instruction garnered from Christy's twenty years of experience as a professional artist and instructor. A certified and trained Environmental Educator, she also brings fresh naturalist knowledge to the outside art table.
Check out our Wall of Fame, celebrating art student work during Covid.
This time is all yours. Artists leave class refreshed, confident and inspired.
I'm excited to offer in person lessons when possible! Let's make a plan that works for you...
Lessons make great gifts for someone whose life you want to enrich.
Since March of 2020, artists of middle and high school age have been enjoying the virtual option in our weekly private and semi-private art lessons with Christy. She custom designs each lesson for the individual artist and delivers fresh supplies, mediums and inspirations to your door each week, then walks you through an engaging art plan via Face Time at an hour that works for you.
These are not mass kits; they are custom project provocations designed for the individual artist.
