Instructors

Art was my passion through my entire life, it's my meditation. From the age of 6 I was tacking art lessons and at the age of 17 I recieved a Fine Art School diploma.

To be a full time artist is not an easy task so I decided to pursue my career in graphic design. I did my graphic design diploma in 1999 in College du Vieux Montreal and for almost 10 years I have worked as a freelancer and a full time graphic designer, and continued painting when I had a chance. Now I'm a full time artist and art teacher. I'm also a member of RHGA (Richmond Hill Group of Artists) and I exhibit my work in the RHGA gallery and other galleries.

I believe that art is very important in the child's development, it's not only improving students fine motor skills and creativity but also inspires, heals, ignites passion and brings happiness to the human soul. I hope that my art lessons will help children to unfold the world of joy. I have developed a unique curriculum that will not only teach principles of art but will give children a chance to become real graphic designers, digital illustrators, photographers or annimators by using professional software and creating logo designs, websites and annimations. Complexity of each project will depend on the child's age and interests.
