Learn to Paint with step by step instruction incorporating the building blocks of Art Fundamentals. Work from defined exercises or choose imagery and concepts of your own. Let's explore what you like about the idea or image, study the elements, and apply creative techniques to bring your expression and vision to life!
Art Fundamentals are essential components of successful art making. These elements include:
Line, Shape, Texture, Color, Form, Space, Value
Outsider Art broadly refers to artists with no formal training, but has come to describe work produced by artists with disabilities. Creating and embracing art is a method of empowering individuals to explore various means of personal expression.
Personal Work
Client Work
The paintings and sculptures below were created by my clients/artists at Blank Canvas Studios (BCS). I facilitated, guided, and supported the artists on each piece. BCS is a creative arts program for individuals with developmental disabilities, providing people of all ability levels the opportunity to create and be celebrated for their very special style of outsider art. These artists are allowed the opportunity to create uninhibited art to the best of their ability.
