I'm an illustrator and educator, offering observational drawing classes in and around Cambridge, MA. Classes are located at the Harvard Museum of Natural History, Arlington Center for the Arts and Cambridge Center for Adult Education. I also hold private classes for individuals and groups.
I've always loved to draw, and really enjoy sharing that enthusiasm when I teach. Observational drawing is a fun way to connect to the world around you, to record your experiences, to think through a problem, to respond to nature, to express yourself...
If you'd like to check out some of my illustrations, visit my freelance illustration website: www.mbcgraphics.com ; and you can see more of my work (and work by lots of other amazing artists) at the Science-Art.Com website.
This site is still in progress - but my Winter 2009 classes are listed below. Please click on the links for class details.
Thanks for checking in!
