Instructor bio: As a lifelong artist and maker, I work in a wide array of mediums and have learned all my skills from friends, family, community, and many (many) years of trial and error. I’ve never been able to stick to making just one type of thing. My work explores many skills and styles and is more defined by my processes and values than any specific format. Most importantly, I believe that this should all be fun. Don’t get me wrong, art is an incredibly vast form of expression. It can be a vehicle for basically any and all emotions or messages. But for me? It’s joy, connection, worthiness, and an earnest love for the world and all the people in it.
