I have been painting for a long time but still consider myself a student as I love learning about my favorite medium, oil paint. I am also a lawyer by training, so my approach to painting has a logical slant that I think you will find easy to follow.
While my focus is mainly on beginners, I have tried to put together information that will be helpful at any level. I believe that learning to paint is a lifelong journey – it is what I love about it the most. I am constantly learning and trying to reach a new skill level. I also believe that the best way to learn is to do it. In my own art, I noticed that I progressed from learning the fundamental “hows” of painting to learning how to “create” a great piece of art using those methods. For me, this was a substantial pivoting moment.
So let’s have some fun and learn together.

All classes are taught in Jamie's studio.
"My studio is part of my home, out in the garden, surrounded by flowers and foliage, in the heart of Woodinville’s Wine District. I designed my studio to be an airy, elegantly casual, non-threatening space, where students can feel at home. I also encourage my students to move about my studio and learn as much as they can about the high-quality tools and essentials available for them to use. All they have to do is show up ready to create. I provide everything else."
