intro to painting
Start from zero. Colour mixing, brush handling, and how to look at what you're actually painting. You'll finish with a small body of work you're proud of.

hi, i'm Alex
An artist and educator. I graduated from Pratt Institute with a BFA and a minor in Painting and Art History. I received my Masters in Teaching Special Education from LIU Brooklyn. My art practice is still in the works of being discovered.
Start from zero. Colour mixing, brush handling, and how to look at what you're actually painting. You'll finish with a small body of work you're proud of.
Pinch, coil, and slab building. We'll make dishes and vessels, then carve and glaze them. Everything gets fired between sessions.
Art class built around how each student learns. Sensory-friendly materials, flexible pacing, and no wrong way to make something. Drawing on my special education training.
One on one, shaped around whatever you're working on — a portfolio, a specific technique, or just getting unstuck. Tell me what you want and we'll build it.
Want in, or curious about dates and pricing? Send me a message and I'll get back to you.
Every tip goes straight back into paint, clay, and kiln time.
