Private Art Lessons and Mentoring

Abstract Painting • Mark Making • Mixed Media

I offer private sessions in my Longmont studio for artists who want focused support in developing their work. These sessions are immersive and structured so you leave with new insights, tools, and momentum in your practice.

My teaching emphasizes mark making, color, surface, and composition—the building blocks of a strong abstract language. I help you refine what’s already working in your art, expand your range of techniques, and create paintings that carry presence and resonance.

 

Session Formats

  • Half-Day Session (3 hours)
    A concentrated session to explore personal motifs, layering techniques, or composition challenges. We’ll work across multiple surfaces and materials to generate fresh directions and breakthroughs.

  • Full-Day Session (6 hours, with a break)
    An extended format that gives you time to explore, build surfaces, and integrate new approaches while receiving steady feedback. Ideal for advancing a body of work or pushing into new territory.

  • Private Critique Session (1 hour)
    Focused feedback on your works in progress. We’ll look at what’s strong, where to push further, and how to refine your choices in line, color, and composition.

"I graduated with a Fine Arts Degree.  Andrea's mentorship taught me more in four sessions than I learned from my four years in college.  My individual sessions dove into harmonious color theory, balanced composition, paint attributes, creative design tools, and advice on presenting my work in a way that got me into the shows I wanted to be a part of ."
