Choosing the Right Painting Teacher

So you want to improve your painting skills... But, choosing the right teacher can feel overwhelming—especially when all you have are a few snippets from the internet. How do you know if their teaching style actually matches the way you like to learn?

Back when I was starting out, your options were pretty limited: you either found a local class or traveled to a workshop.

These days, there are so many options (including online) —which is great, but it can also make it even harder to know which teacher is right for you.

That’s why I recorded a short video to share my teaching philosophy. In it, I’ll explain how I approach teaching so you not only paint along but also actually learn the process to make your own landscapes stronger.

Not every teacher is right for every student, and not every method fits the way everyone learns. But when you find an approach that truly resonates with you—one that helps you understand why things work, not just how—it can change everything about how you grow as a painter.

In this one-hour session, I’ll share the same 4-stage framework I use in my own work, so you can get a feel for how I teach and decide whether this approach fits the way you like to learn—while also giving you a clearer process for strengthening your landscapes.
