Who is Welcome?
Adults and Teens of Any Skill Level
All students will be working on their own unique subject matter (this is not a “copy what the teacher does” class). Therefore, whether you are a beginner or advanced student, you will have the opportunity to work on the lesson’s project at your own pace, receiving guidance, tips, and critique from your teacher Matilda to enhance your skills….or simply to get you started, even if you’ve never made art before!
Students are loving these classes, absolutely delighted!
“Matilda is an excellent art teacher and I so enjoyed learning from her!
She shared so many wonderful techniques for creating beautiful and unique pieces of art.
I loved that she helped us to get into flow and connect to our creative heart centers through leading us in meditation.
I highly recommend Matilda to anyone looking to explore their creative side and would not hesitate to sign up for more classes with her. She’s the real deal and has such a warm and inviting spirit about her 💖” ~Jodi
“I like how open you leave it. When I asked for guidance, you didn’t tell me what to do, but rather left room for my own creativity to come forth.” ~Landon
