🌟 Why study with me?🌟
I model flexible thinking and creativity.
My students know that if they ask, "Stephanie, can I..." the answer is almost always "Yes!!"
I emphasize the PROCESS of art-making. Exploring different ways to use materials is a fundamental part of thinking like an artist.
Each student will have a unique end product - I don't dictate what students' art will look like.
Unless I'm teaching a very specific technical skill, I give students room to make projects their own, and offer guidance as needed.
I keep classes small to ensure engagement!
What Parents Are Saying
"It's like a switch was flipped inside (my learner) the day he took your first class, after months of almost nothing. Now he is making making making every single day and our house is strewn with the results of all this happy art and industry! He's inspired us all and now we are creating art as a family regularly, too. So thank you for being that inflection point!"
-Parent of a 6-year-old
“Stephanie always brings in positive energy to her class (I just love her big smiles and exuberant laughter!) and encourages her students NOT to follow step-by-step instructions, but to be curious, to be creative, and to explore. She also explains how things work in a clear, logical way that seems to click instantly with these eager young minds!”
