About Jim
My students have the opportunity to study with a successful, knowledgeable realist painter. The quality of work my students produce, as well as the lessons learned through practical experience I’ve gained working with dealers and owning galleries will help them reach and exceed their goals of a career in fine art.
I have 25 years of professional experience selling my work with fine art dealers. Additionally I have many years owning my own galleries on Royal Street in New Orleans, and another in Savannah, Georgia.
If this is the style of painting you’re interested in, I can help you achieve your goals and avoid common mistakes that hold many artists back from reaching their potential.
With drawing, often a single, three hour lesson will give students the foundation skills and information necessary to begin the journey, in the most direct path, to becoming fluent with materials and techniques.
30 years of independent study, including 10 years copying masterworks in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.

Assess current ability. Discuss goals which could be as simple as learning traditional and modern painting techniques to more complex needs such as improving and streamlining a portfolio to present to dealers and galleries.
After assessing current level and addressing goals we focus on identifying weaknesses and creating a lesson plan of specific exercises to improve technique. Technical mastery of drawing is the first step in painting. Once students have a solid grasp of tools and techniques, we then move on to personal vision and expression.
Look at the quality of their work. Look at their paintings. Look at their drawings. Assess their skill and accomplishment. Only if you’re sure you can learn from someone should you take lessons.
There are thousands of artists with teaching degrees struggling to make ends meet because they didn’t focus on building a strong foundation of skills. Painting isn’t about talent. Painting is about skill. Can your instructor give you the skills you need to meet and exceed your goals? If yes, study with that instructor. If not, keep looking.
