About Renee
I am an adjunct professor at Saddleback Community College, and a resident artist for Segerstroms. I studied art at Otis and earned my MFA in painting at Savannah College of Art and Design. I love working with students of all ages and all abilities.
When I’m not teaching, I am working on my studio practice and running a small gallery in The Santa Ana Arts District. I paint in encaustic, cold wax, oil, pastel, watercolor and acrylic, and love exploring new techniques and mediums.

I love art- everything about it! Whether it's the discovery process, the mark-making, creating something out of nothing, expressing myself where words won't go- I am passionate to share this with others. Art changes lives. It causes us to slow down, to notice, to empathise, to love.
I have always enjoyed helping others and sharing what I know. After beginning my art studies at Otis, I continued my education at Loyola Marymount University for my degree in education. With many years dedicated to being an art instructor, I decided to return to academia in pursuit of my Masters. I recently earned an MFA in painting from Savannah College of Art and Design and am now officially a professor.
I am a Segerstrom resident artist. I studied at Otis, Pasadena Art Center and LCAD and recently earned my MFA at SCAD. I am a member of California Art Club and LPAPA.

I first like to get to know my student, and find out their goals for learning art. After assesing where they want to go and where they are currently, we discuss medium, supplies, and then set up a lesson time. I often start lessons with relevant inspiration from historic as well as contemporary artists, and then proceed to give direction and encouragement as we work through a painting together. We critique a work together, problem solve and set new goals for our next meeting.
I work with all types! I love the ones who tell me they can't draw a straight line- I take this as a personal challenge! I have worked with professional artists wanting to explore a new medium as well as beginning artists, just figuring it all out. I work with 5 year olds to 85 year olds!
Do your research. Have short and long term goals in mind. Know your why- fun and relaxation or maybe more career based?
I have always found it interesting when people say that they are not talented or refer to art as being a gift. Art is work and practice like anything else. Nobody sits down to a grand piano expecting to play a flawless concerto if they have never taken piano lessons. They understand the years of study and practice that go into this. But for some reason people expect to be able to paint right out of the gate. When they struggle, they give up and say they simply have no talent. Know that this is a commitment. It won't always be easy. My goal is to keep it fun so that the growth process is a lot less painful.
I have enjoyed participating in the First Saturday Art Walk in Santa Ana. It is good to be back in person, sharing and discussing art in my gallery. Please stop by! I would love to meet you!
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Again- what are your goals and your purpose in this? There is nothing wrong with doing this for pure enjoyment. Somebody studying to prepare a portfolio for art school would have a different approach.
What mediums are you drawn to?
Who are some artists that you admire?
We have different ideas of landscape, for instance. You might really love the work of somebody painting in oils, but you are thinking watercolor would be fun... Having some examples of styles that you want to learn about is so helpful to my preparing a course of study for you.

Renee is not only an amazing artist but she is an amazing teacher & person! Renee has a great “all inclusive” approach to learning at all levels. She teaches you all the “art rules” but also points out that it’s ok to break the rules. She encourages a casual & mobile sketching practice that is obtainable. Renee gives great feedback to your art - always the positive and suggestions on how to make it better. I’ve learned so much from Renee about the art world. Renee always stresses about our art: “it’s art if you love it - it’s not so much about what others think about it!” Renee makes classes fun and encourages taking risks. I’m forever grateful for her wonderful teaching!
Renee is so talented in all mediums of art! She is patient and very knowledgeable as a teacher. I would higly recommend taking a class from her if you are a beginner or an advanced painter looking to learn another medium.
It's open, inviting and comfortable surrounded with her beautiful art.
She is so warm and welcoming and makes you feel like an amazing artist, even if you are a beginner! A fabulous teacher!View more recommendations
