SL Adult Beginning Portrait Drawing

Brittney received her Bachelors of Science in Human Development from Brigham Young University. Her emphasis was in Human Development. She loves working with adults and seeing how their life experiences creates unique artwork from each of her students. She loves relating how the human brain works to different aspects of art and how that understanding can help the development of new skills! Britt’s love for art started as a child watching her mom paint, helping her dad with his professional photography and visiting art museums. Britt began developing her art as a teenager first as a photographer, and then through manipulating her photography in photoshop. She took a variety of art classes throughout college including sculpture, drawing, color theory, photography, bookbinding, and art history. Now Britt’s art includes sculpture, drawing, and painting. Drawing is her area of emphasis, specifically working with charcoal, oil pastels, and colored pencils. As a teacher of art classes, Britt’s greatest strength lies in encouragement. While learning artistic skills is a great result of her art classes, Britt really tries to build her student’s confidence in themselves and invites them to find the good in their own work rather than comparing themselves to other students.
