Mission
Connecting people and art, through online courses and community. We are here to share tonal values, color theory, textures, realism and other genres and the love of animals with other topics we will approach too, with you. We’ll be using many different mediums, but mainly color pencil.
All The Tools You Here you can learn and with our community page share, chat and ask questions. We are supportive of one another and here to help each other grow. We offer courses in pen, color pencil, charcoal and graphite in real-time, closed captions and at your own pace that you can return to time and time again. Although many of us these days find art to be a non-essential, we very much find it essential to our well-being, our imagination and our happiness. Through art we find fulfillment, purpose and connection to others. That’s why, not only do I have courses to support your creative mind but also the support of community.

Tai's art is outstanding! She sent us pictures as her work progressed and turn around was way faster than we had imagined. She penciled our two fur-babies and they look so real people think that its a photo. Highly recommend!!

Tai is great to communicate with and produces excellent artwork! I commissioned a colored pencil portrait as a gift for my girlfriend and it was perfect!
