- New Commission on view at CSHHC
If you visit Cornell Scott Hill Health Center at 428 Columbus Avenue in New Have, CT, you’ll see a new painting on the wall. I finished “Neighborhood Rhythm” (oil on canvas, 92″ x 24″) last year- a piece inspired by the interconnected community in New Haven.
CSHHC interviewed me about the piece-you can check it out below. It’s part of their new art program featuring the work of local artists in their clinics.
CLASSES
I invite you to learn how to draw with me at one of my classes in New York City or New Haven, CT. Enjoy personal attention and specific guidance on how to overcome common drawing and painting challenges. The classes focus on sharpening your observational skills, drawing subjects in proportion, understanding light and shadow, and composition. Expand your creative potential by gaining the skills required to express yourself through graphic media- and have fun doing it!

Art Students League
New York CityMondays and Thursdays, 7:00pm – 8:30 pm ET
Starts September 9, 2022! Registration is ongoing on a monthly basis.
REGISTER HERE!This class teaches the basics of structural drawing, depicting light and shadow, and composition through the study of still-life objects. The class is designed to give students a clear process of looking and drawing that can be used both for simple objects and more complicated subjects. Each month will focus on a slightly different topic: contours, perspective, values, sketching, and others. The class is open to all skill levels but is designed to give beginning students a friendly but rigorous place to start drawing.
