    NEW Love to Draw course

    I strongly believe that in ten weeks, anyone - no previous experience required - can learn to draw. And that’s how LOVE TO DRAW came about!
    Whether you have previous art experience or are a brand-new beginner, the foundational lessons will help you improve your skills and confidence with drawing any subject matter. And if you are already a painter, and would like to draw better foundational drawings for your paintings, then this is the perfect course for you!


    I hope you’ll join me this coming spring!


    Wednesdays, from 10am -12 noon PST

    January 7 - March 11, 2026
