About Yassie

I began my first drawing and painting lessons at a private painting studio. The teacher I had was very methodical. We first learned drawing, then rendering with graphite pencils, then color pencil and finally we were able to choose a painting medium if we wanted. I then continued my art education at the college level, taking design, figure drawing, oil painting, watercolor, fashion design, ceramics, and other such classes. I loved my background in drawing and painting and wanted to see how I could apply it to other surfaces and bring it into the 3D world, and after a class in metalsmithing, I decided that would be what I would major in school. I received my Bachelor's in Fine Arts in 3D Media, with emphasis in Metalsmithing from California State University of Long Beach. I have worked as a teacher for the past 15 years. I taught after-school art classes at various schools, then moved on to teach art part-time at an elementary school, and then as a full-time art teacher at a middle school. I've helped students with creating portfolios to apply to art high schools as well as college with success. I am a multidisciplinary artist so I have not only done painting and drawing projects with my students, I have also taught them sculpting, ceramic arts, and sewing. I love teaching. I feel like it opens a world of possibility for people.

I have taught private classes online, at my home, and at private studios. I have also worked as an art teacher within the school systems for the past 7 years.

I use a student-centered approach. Regardless of the student's age, they will have a choice in what they'd like to learn. I will then provide the scaffolding needed to learn those specific skills and reach their goals.
Students can approach me with a predetermined project in mind or I can help them brainstorm, create sketches, and choose a final design based on their needs and desires.

A typical painting lesson for a beginner student will involve showing them how to create various colors using the primary colors and black and white. The students will learn how to create tints, shades, and tones and how to use them to add dimension and depth to their art. If they are painting a still life or painting from a reference they will learn about proportion to help them make a more accurate representational painting.

I take joy in creating and teaching, and am very easy going to work with. I care deeply about my students and clients and it's extremely important for me to know that they are walking away happy with their experience.
