Honestly, I was interested in making a little extra money, but after my first class I was hooked. I taught a painting class at a birthday party attended by elderly women and it went phenomenally well. I spent that night speaking the language of color, light, and positive space and it went way better than I imagined. That event changed the whole trajectory of my career.
In addition to formal training as a professional communicator, I've worked in the arts for most of my career. I've worked as a production artists as well as for private clients to create commissioned portraits for their private collections as well as for unique gifts.
Additionally, I've worked for a number of studios teaching painting, mixed media and fiber arts to students across literally all age groups; from pre-school to seniors.

It's important to talk generally about what the artist is looking to work on or any specific goals they're looking to acheive.
Once we've established a vision of what our classes will include, we'll work to coordinate on date, time and whether the artist is interested in working together on a regular basis.
Pre-school age children for whom I organized a variety of lesson plans right on through the elderly who are patient and super clued in to observation.
Find someone whose artwork speaks to you and who makes you feel comfortable.
I recently taught a crochet class during a baby shower where all of the participants worked to create a baby blanket. It was a blast, particularly because there were so many babies laying around and chasing after the balls of yarn.
