Since 1987, I’ve been teaching classes in sketching, drawing, ink/watercolor sketching, watercolor painting, travel sketching and workshops for a variety of organizations including including at Arizona State University, the Canossian Spirtituality Center, and for Masterworks of Albuquerque as well as my own private classes.  I also offer personal one-on-one or small group tutoring.  I enjoy working with students at all levels.
