About Brian
In my fifteen plus years in Higher Ed I have taught hundreds of students to draw and paint. I am the department chair and professor of art at West Liberty University. I have had success with students of all backgrounds, ages and talent levels.
My focus with students is increasing their perceptual sensitivity, the logic of representational space and making students more efficient so they can get more accomplished. I believe deeply that by improving ones drawing skills you also increase your ability to express yourself in whatever media you choose. I earned a MFA in drawing from the New York Academy of Art in NYC and a BFA in illustration from the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA.
While studying at the New York Academy of Art I was able to participate in a program where MFA students worked with local NYC students on drawing lessons at the academy and at their schools. After earning my MFA I moved to Colorado and began teaching college art classes.
i have taught drawing and painting courses for over fifteen years and enjoyed success with high school students, college students and adult learners. I have been lucky enough to work with students from very diverse backgrounds and help them better themselves as artists.

For process to be successful there has to be a clear communication of goals and expectations. It's important for me to learn about why the student is interested in learning these skills, and what has worked and failed for them in the past. There are a lot of ways to learn how to become a better artist so getting to know and understand what a student needs is essential. After we get to know each other I start from the ground up and build upon what they know and clean up any inefficiencies or bad habits.
My main group is college level students but I have worked as a master instructor in studio art for the WV Governor School for the Arts, taught studio art classes for the adult learning section of the Carnegie Museum of Art and teacher certification classes for Ohio County Schools.
Students need to be patient and give any teacher a chance for their method to take hold. All skills worth having require effort and perseverance and you have to be comfortable with what may initially look like failure. Art is about effort and you need to understand that if the process is well thought out that your struggles will lead to improvement and success.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Art instruction is not one size fits all so knowing your personal goals is important. By being able to communicate your goals you can then ask the instructor about what can they do to help get you there. Also asking about the critique process is important. No one improves without learning from our mistakes and that is what critiques are for.
