Why Skillshare?

I’ve been teaching out of my studio in Houston for quite a few years now, and it’s a lot of fun. Students and I create artworks, some have no experience, others are wanting to problem solve issues they are having or want a class to get their creative juices flowing again, We all learn something!

Problem is, with my travel, I’m not always around to give lessons from my studio.

As part of my art practice, using Social Media, taking photos and videos, I had a subscription to Skillshare to learn new skills. What’s nice about Skillshare is that each class is structured around projects and creating something, an Instagram post, an enhanced portrait, a marketing strategy.

An invitation from Skillshare to join their Teacher program, solved my problem - I decide to venture into the world of online teaching. I started with my most popular class - the pouring class and created the online class using the well tried approaches I had used in my studio classes. The video and audio processes were new to me and I’m still learning. Each class I create is an improvement from the last.

Now, I can offer my classes in my studio, and also to those around the world who can’t get to my studio. Also, there is a whole Skillshare community beyond my world - there are classes in all sorts of topics to explore from fine art to business to creativity!

Skillshare is subscription based - but reasonably priced for the amount of content you can explore, with this link to Skillshare you can try it for free first!
