"The class was awesome. It was a lot of fun.
I have never painted before and you made it so simple that I could follow along and have a painting that people knew what it was when I was done. I will do this again. Thank you for the fun!"
~ Adrienne R
Kim is an amazing teacher, she is so patient, friendly and professional. My teen son loved his class and I'm so happy for that. We started with Kim in her studio but due to covid and because we moved out of the area we continued with classes on Zoom. Amazing teacher.

"As a three-time participant in her virtual class,
I really appreciate the variety of imagery she has guided us through. My wall is now adorned with colorful artwork that I’m quite proud of. Thanks Kim!"

THANK YOU FOR AN AMAZING YEAR OF CREATING!
What does an In-Person & Live Virtual KVA Class look like?
It looks like a bunch of KVArteests all creating, chatting, listening to music, & sharing their work. All students In-Studio & Zoomies can see each other & show their progress if they choose to throughout the class time.
Students are encouraged to ask questions, & they receive instant feedback & personalized guidance through every brushstroke & pencil scratch. Virtual classes are great for students who would rather create from the comfort of their home, need to stay home that day from in-person class, or are a bit far from my studio but would still like to be in a community with fellow artists.
No matter if they are in-person or online, I love getting to know my students & watching them grow in their creative journey!
