UPDATE:New Options!

for Art Classes at

Reddi Arts or My Barn Studio!
@ 3920 Sierra Madre Dr S. Jax Fl.32217

Reddi Arts will still be conducting classes for a while at the same old location! So I have amended my class schedules to include mornings teaching there as before, and afternoons at my studio if you prefer to have classes in my active studio environment. (See the NEW scheduling details on your Reddi Arts or Studio schedule options below)

Reddi Arts is in negotiations with potential buyers at the current location. They will continue to operate at that location for perhaps three more months. When they change locations, they asked me to continue teaching there when they relocate! SO, while things are in flux, it gives you MORE OPTIONS!

As for my schedules, I will offer continuing art education to dedicated students who want to improve their skills in drawing, watercolor, acrylic, and oil at my very own studio location.   The classes at my studio location will be limited to 6 student capacity. You are free to come by to see my studio (by appointment).

I have been at this awhile, as you can see! I am photographed here in 1975 working on a surrealistic 48" X 48" oil canvas called "Marriage of the Sea And Sky" and can be viewed at the studio. I paid my dues during my starving artist days, made lots of mistakes and had successes too.

I also have extensive portfolios of large wall murals painted internationally, and wall finishes to review! I can share all of that with you best at this location! Class sizes are limited to six though, so book your spot in this first offering, while there is still room.
