Since 1997, Michele has offered classes for beginners as well as more experienced students. In an academic as well as social context, she provides a learning experience that is informative, supportive and fun. Classes include introductory, still life, landscape as well as personal project classes for the more advanced. She offers plein air and color theory classes as well.
“I like to think of my classes as serious fun. I present the information necessary for successful painting in a relaxed atmosphere. Rather than teach a particular style of painting, I encourage my students to explore their own artistic voice. My classes are a resource for the hobbyist as well as those looking to build a solid foundation for future endeavors."
