I have a limited number of private art lesson openings available at my studio in the Lake Highlands area of Dallas. This works well for people with a day job as well as those with a more flexible schedule. I can help you with a variety of contemporary acrylic painting styles whether is is representational, abstract, non-objective or mixed media/collage. All levels are welcome. Private lessons give us the opportunity to develop your individual strengths and improve on your weaker areas. It is truly a custom class intended to meet your individual needs.
Private art lessons are $50 an hour with a two hour minimum. For more information, call 214-340-6914 or e-mail Maureen
Joining a critique group can be extremely helpful for your progress as an artist. I critique each artist for ten minutes. You may bring one or two paintings. You learn not only from my comments about your work but also from my comments and observations about the work of your collegues. When you are going to enter a juried show, have a gallery show, go in a new direction with your work, or just feel stuck, participating in a critique group can be extremely useful. It opens your mind to new, fresh ideas which you can apply to your work. I cannot count the number of times that someone has had an Aha moment during our critique sessions. A majority of my critique artists have made excellent progress in their work, been accepted into juried shows, and started winning awards. All of that is icing on the cake, but it encourages you to push yourself to make work at a higher, more challenging level.
If you are interested in joining one of my critique groups or for more information, call 214-340-6914 or e-mail me and I will pass the information on to the group coordinator. The critique fee is $25 each month. .
