I've taken 1-on-1 art lessons from Deborah Brooks in watercolor painting since Fall 2024. I'm an un-tutored/beginning artist. Deborah listens carefully to my ideas and intentions, and encourages me to experiment and paint from them -- and from my heart. She reminds me "there are no rules." She points out positive features of my paintings, such as something that creates interest or makes good use of color mixes. She uncovers my strengths and makes practical suggestions as to how to repair or improve a work in progress. She is marvelous in sparking me to be brave and unleash my creativity. I leave each lesson inspired to continue painting.

I was eager to work with Deborah in particular because of her extensive background as an art educator. Her teaching style is great! She is clearly used to teaching students with a variety of learning styles, communicating in a fluid manner that is easy to understand and follow. I have improved my skills considerably working with Deborah. I highly recommend taking her classes.
