“Breon was totally prepared for the lesson. She has a very patient and professional manner. Her teaching style is friendly and helpful and the material she covered was terrific. She is an amazing artist and can really share information and insights well. Super highly recommended.” -Richard, painting student

Plain and simple, I truly love art and I would be honored to help you or your child to learn how create whatever calls to you.

It doesn’t matter if you think you can’t draw, if you haven’t painted in 20 years, no matter what your skill level you can learn to make the art you want to!

Whatever your goal is, I can help you get there.

I typically teach with 2 different methods. For beginners, you’ll send me inspiration pieces and we walk through paintings together doing it all step by step. For more advanced students who have a bit of experience and paint on their own time, we’ll work in more of a feedback loop covering deeper topics like composition, color theory, values, design, perspective, mark making, etc and how they can help improve your work.

I’ve been drawing and painting for 8 years now and teaching students of all ages and mediums, for the past 3. I have experience both painting and teaching the following subjects:

• Oil, acrylic, gouache, and digital

• Drawing, sketching, and realistic pencil

• Landscapes, portraits (both people and animals), and still lifes

• Composition and design, color theory, values, brushwork, perspective, and all the fundamentals that will make your work truly stand out!

Testimonials

“Breon is a wonderful tutor! She is a talented artist and takes time to answer questions, review techniques, and discuss actionable ways I can move forward and improve my work. Breon is not afraid to give honest feedback and I feel like my artwork is going to grow exponentially through our work together. Looking forward to continuing our work :)” Molly, digital and acrylic student

“My daughter River (10) had such a great experience with Breon! She was very friendly and worked well with my daughter. They worked on a realistic drawing at the same time and Breon gave her tips and techniques as they worked. She was awesome! We liked it so much that we set up a weekly lesson with her.” Julie, mom to 10 year drawing student

“My experience with Breon has been great so far. She is well organized, hence, before our first painting lesson she sent a list of materials needed and was clear on our game plan on how we'd approach our project that suited my needs. She's also easy to follow during the tutorials and very patient. I'd highly recommend Breon to anyone who'd like to learn how to do realistic watercolors!!” Julie, watercolor student

“She responded right away and made meeting easy. She was timely and prepared for our lesson. She listened to what I wanted to accomplish and tailored her lesson accordingly. I look forward to working with her more." Nilaja, drawing student
