Terri Schuler - WATERCOLOR

I’ve been captivated by form, design, and color since childhood, guided by inspiring teachers and mentors. My career as a selling artist began in high school with oil portraits of children, pets, and the occasional landscape. Later, watercolors expanded my expression and is my favorite. Today, I share my passion by teaching watercolor at the studio while offering my pieces for collectors.

Catrina Haberman - RECYCLE ARTIST

I am 23 years old. I am what I like to call a “Trash Artist”. I take literal garbage, sanitize it and turn it into ART. I go on walks, collect garbage, sanitize it and turn it into something new. I believe everything should have the chance to be recycled and used again. I encourage folks locally to save their trash for me! I want to teach people to use their creativity not just for painting, traditional art but to expand and make things out of the box that no one else has made before. I make all sorts of things with my Trash, from jewelry to yard décor, to nick knacks and so much more. Recycle art is a very unique medium. I can’t wait to be your instructor!

Mike Brown - STAINED GLASS

I studied stained glass art in Dayton, Ohio and various studios across the USA. I taught stained glass in Casa Grand and Prescott Valley for 5+ years. Teaching various techniques from caming and foiling to restoration and repair. Combining glass with mix-media wood, metal, and lighting to produce simple to complex 3D designs. My focus is helping others realize their hidden inner artistic talent through guidance and encouragement. From introduction to stained glass through intricate designs where you can work at your pace. If you ever looked at a painting or any piece of art and said that’s beautiful, I can help you make a beautiful piece that you create from your own imagination.

Josh Chaney - OIL PAINTING

Josh Chaney is a distinguished oil painter who draws his inspiration from impressionism, realism and old masters, bringing a timeless quality to his contemporary pieces. His artistry is deeply rooted in the philosophy of painting what he sees, a practice that not only captures the visible world but also anchors him in the present moment. This dedication to realism and impressionism allows him to create works that are both evocative and grounded, offering viewers a glimpse into the beauty of the everyday.

Throughout his career Josh has continually explored the intersection of perception and reality, emphasizing the importance of being present.

His classes are highly insightful and instructive for the intermediate and beyond oil painters.

"Great artists aren't born — they're built, one paint stroke at a time."
