I am a teacher of classic drawing, painting, storytelling and pictorial arts.

I've taught part-time at Fullerton College for 24 years (1984-2008).

My classes have included:

• Anatomy for Artists (13 semesters)
• Perspective & Rendering (5 semesters)
• Drawing from the Masters (17 semesters)
• Illustration (9 semesters)
• Watercolor Painting (14 semesters)

In 1996, Don Lagerberg hired me to teach at California State University Fullerton.

My classes at CSUF have been:

• Life Drawing (7 semesters)
• Animal Drawing (12 semesters)
• Sequential Art (14 semesters)

Since 1997 I've taught various classes for the Laguna College of Art and Design, including:

• Animal Drawing
• Watercolor
• Artistic Anatomy
• Visual Thinking
• Comic Book Illustration
• Children's Book Illustration
• Sequential Art (15 semesters)
• Directing for Animation (co-taught with Aubry Mintz)

Fullerton College invited me as Artist-In-Residence in Spring 2003.

I made my living as an illustrator for about twenty years, and learned how to draw by teaching classic draftsmanship in colleges. I love learning and working in classrooms when the students love the subject.

Since 1999, I have taught Sequential Art for a total of 29 semester sessions at LCAD and CSUF.

Now I do seminars and itinerant teaching all over Southern California. I regularly teach my Composition For Artists seminar at the LA Academy of Figurative Art. I've also taught Composition and Anatomy in the following corporate art departments:

• Interplay Corporation
• Insomniac Games
• Rockstar Games
• Blizzard Entertainment
• A large, famous entertainment empire in Anaheim that had me sign an agreement not to use their name to promote my teaching. But it went well.
