Nancy has been teaching art for over 30 years - and still loves it! She has taught nationally to students of all levels, shapes and sizes. From Columbia University to the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum to Santa Fe Art Institute she has taught a broad range of art processes: drawing, painting, mixed media, creativity, puppetry & performance, and more. Her goal is to give each student the next best step – whatever that requires – on the way to finding the medium, style and approach that best enables them to “speak” through their work. Nancy feels that art is not a mysterious process, and enjoys breaking down advanced concepts and techniques to easy bite-size pieces. Nancy’s workshops are unintimidating, energized, informative, personal and charged with up to date art news, art ideas and new processes.
Workshops are designed in a specific order, alternating demonstrations with hands on projects, and accomplishing the following goals: to maintain a beneficial rhythm and pace, to have fun, to experience a wide variety of painting methodologies, to explore how ideas can be generated through a playful collaboration with the materials, to allow maximum flow of the individual creative experience (a more complex way of saying “having fun”).Here are some of her more popular workshops.
