As a professional visual artist and art educator, I’ll guide you step-by-step through the painting process, whether you’re a total beginner or someone looking to deepen your skills. You can choose from a curated selection of NYC scenes — from iconic bridges and vibrant parks to quiet corners of the city — or bring your own favorite photo or memory to paint from.
