VISUAL ARTIST & ARTIST IN YOUR CLASSROOM

As a graduate of the Art and Art History Program from the University of Toronto and Sheridan, I combine my mixed media artistic skills and art history knowledge along with my teaching and work experience to develop curriculum based, creative arts projects.

Such projects can include:
- 3-Dimensional Shadow Box replication of art history paintings (see Renaissance Painting project below)
- Figure drawing exploring gesture drawing, sustained poses and drawing from the figure using charcoal, graphite and other media (see Foreshortening Project below)

'The Business of Being an Artist' is an informative session for students discussing various professions, educational requirements, marketing, self promotion and entrepreneurial aspects. As a professional artist I share my educational and teaching background, my personal experience as an exhibiting artist, as well as my work experience in the graphic design and printing industries.
