The essential connection between creativity and spirituality
is at the center of my philosophy as an educator.



I have taught highly successful classes and workshops for artists, therapists, teachers and the general public at universities and adult education centers for over twenty-two years.


Private lessons and 
small group workshops
  • Supportive assistance and expert technical instruction geared to the individual interests and goals of each student.
  • Scheduled at your convenience 
  • Materials provided to get you started.
  • Excellent for busy people who cannot fit themselves into a class schedule or who want to pursue their creative goals in a competely private setting.
  • Includes slide presentations, technical instruction and demonstrations of materials, guided meditation,  readings to discuss, and sensative  feedback that will  encourage your progress. 
  • Perfect for people at all levels of experience and skill from accomplished professionals to brand-new first-time artists
