Kristy has been teaching art for most of her life, starting in high school when she worked at a preschool in her hometown. She loved the bright enthusiasm the kids had when they mastered a new skill and that drove her to continue teaching at every opportunity.

Kristy has since taught all ages in pretty much every medium and loves to create new projects to keep her creativity (and yours) fresh and exciting!

Her method is open minded and she works individually with her students to help them solve challenges with intuition and creativity. She seeks to inspire her students to love art and creating, no matter their age, skill or experience. Kristy holds classes at her downtown studio for small groups or individuals.
