Education

University of Michigan/Bachelor of Science and Design/Teaching Degree Double Major in fine Arts and Art Education, Double Minor in Fine Arts and French. Advanced art classes at Eastern Michigan University, Birmingham Bloomfield Art Association, apprenticing with world renown artist, many painting workshops

Experience

Taught art in the Troy Public Schools and Substituted in Art and French in Troy, Birmingham, Southfield and Bloomfield Hills School districts. I have been teaching Oil and Watercolor Painting and Drawing to adults, high school and college students for over 10 years in my art studio in Troy. I have traveled to and all over France to paint and become more proficient in the French Language, staying a month at a time. I have also traveled to Italy to paint and study the classical arts. I would like to share with others, what I have learned through my 40 plus years of education and travel. I am passionate about art and how it has taught me to really see the world, people, nature and man made objects with a different awareness. There is beauty all around us if we only take the time to look and understand. Our creations also provide a visual way to express our thoughts and feelings. I read, write and speak French as well as knowing the culture and French people. The more I learn, the more I love this country that has produced so much for the world like art, literature, culinary arts and democracy. Over 40% of our English words are French derivatives. I have traveled all over France and know it intimately. I hope to share my experiences, excitement and love of this country by tutoring others.

Learning to see what is right in front of us and then interpret our thoughts and feelings in what we create, opens up a whole new world of expression and understanding for us. If a student has a positive attitude and a desire to learn, they can be taught many things, including a piece of art they can be proud to have created. Email me to discus art class hours and rates.
