Dear ,

Happy New Year! It's been a slow start with me this year, taking much-needed time off over the holidays and now taking care of family needs. In the midst of this, I finally got a moment to review the works that were developed over the course of 2016 by my many talented and devoted art students, both at my home in West Orange, Studio on the 3rd Floor, and at Work and Play in South Orange. 

Enjoy the work and please share with your friends and family!

Creatively and with ❤️,
 
I have the pleasure of teaching an enthusiastic and talented group of students art each year, including kids, age 7 - 12, teens, and adults. I teach classes out of my West Orange, NJ, home studio, as well as at Work & Play, a co-working space in neighboring South Orange, and last year I also taught a workshop at Peters Valley School of Craft in Layton, NJ. 

In Einstein's words, "It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge." I hope I've achieved this, even in the smallest of ways. Here's a smattering of the work accomplished by many of these students throughout the year, along with some takeaways.
