what is Expression Over Perfection?
I offer art classes for kids and teens with a focus on expressing what is within each individual, how they see the world and what their unique creativity generates, rather than emphasizing a desired outcome. Classes offer a huge range of creative opportunities and are flexible enough to allow for innovative use of the materials and projects and to follow the specific interests of individuals and the group. A goal of the classes is to build students confidence with creative experimentation and strengthen persistence, resilience and dynamic problem solving within creative contexts.
Art Class series offered to homeschool students. Families form groupings of students themselves and can use educational funds or private pay.
