I am a certified teacher with a minor in art. I have taught both oil and watercolor classes over the years through adult education classes held in public schools as well as in the activity centers in several Motorhome parks.

I am now offering oil painting lessons from 1:00 to 4:00 in my home studio. I have room for 3 more students. And the price is only $7.00 per lesson. Interested artists may call me for more information or come over and check out the studio located in Brentwood Park near Kathleen and 15th.

This is a great opportunity to get lots of individual help in a small class and have fun making new art friends while learning how to improve your painting skills.
