As an artist with a BA (Hons) degree in art and the honor of being accepted by the Royal Academy in London twice, I bring a wealth of experience to my role as an art teacher. My journey in the art world has been marked by rigorous training and collaboration with other professionals, fostering a deep understanding of artistic principles, history, and techniques.
Years of honing my craft, coupled with practical experiences, empower me to offer valuable guidance and constructive criticism to my students. Drawing on my creative challenges and triumphs, I aim to assist budding artists in developing their skills. My insights into the art world also provide a roadmap for navigating its complexities.
Beyond my artistic achievements, my passion for teaching has become a cornerstone of my career. With a commitment built over decades, I am devoted to supporting and mentoring students. Aspiring artists under my guidance can expect a unique level of encouragement and personalized support on their artistic journey.
Welcome to my teaching space, where the journey takes us from the studio to the breathtaking mountain tops and serene lakeside sketching sessions. I am excited to share my knowledge and passion for art with both individuals and groups. Whether you're a beginner or to refine your skills, together we'll explore the beauty of our surroundings and let creativity flow. Join me for an inspiring and relaxing experience in nature!
MARY: A STUDENT STORY.
For over 13 years, I've had the privilege and joy of collaborating with an extraordinary woman. Mary came into my life through a recommendation from another art teacher in Zurich. Following a life-altering brain hemorrhage in her early 40's, Mary was forced to relearn fundamental daily tasks and transition away from her career as an accountant.
Drawing upon my background as an educator experienced in working with individuals with diverse needs, Mary and I embarked on a journey to craft a specialized art curriculum tailored to her unique abilities and challenges. Witnessing Mary's dedication and passion, I am immensely proud to have guided her into the rich realm of artistry. She has become not just an inspirational student, but a shining example of resilience and creativity.
