“I was in Shelley’s class. She’s an exceptional teacher – detailed, step by step instructions. She actually showed me how to paint, one step at a time. I loved the course and learned a lot!” Laurie Dolph
“I highly recommend Shelley’s art classes. She is very knowledgeable and talented. She shares her exceptional skill in classical art techniques and art history knowledge.” Cindy Lee
WINTER-SPRING 2026 CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS
Open Studio
Student artists of all levels, working in non-toxic media come together in one class to work on their own projects, or if preferred, supplied subject matter. Students work at their own pace with instruction tailored to meet their individual needs. Demonstrations and low stress critiques are all part of the fun. The Open Studio focus is to build basic skills and hone existing ones.
Students will be contacted prior to the first class to talk about artistic experience, subject matter, medium and more, so we’re all ready for class. Some formal drawing education is recommended for drawing artists. If you want to do collage, I supply some collage materials.
Each class is a separate entity – sign up for any that you want.
