About Josie

Hi, I'm Josie--I'm happy you're here! I'm a professional illustrator with 6 years of experience licensing my work for products and publication in the Philadelphia area. I've worked with clients like Dock Street Brewery, multiple independent publishers, and Moore College of Art & Design, where I graduated with my BFA in Illustration.

I connect with my audience through rich visual storytelling. I use Procreate to create digital paintings, but I'm also known for detailed graphite illustration and oil painting. I've learned that skill and practice always trump talent, and I believe anyone can become an artist!

I'm happy to lend my expertise to emerging artists who wish to learn digital drawing, improve their drawing fundamentals, prepare an art school-ready portfolio, or learn life drawing skills.

Art is my favorite, but I also love cooking my famous vodka sauce, reading a book in the park, and printmaking!

Anyone can be a creative; all you need is an idea! My teaching methodology is rooted in expanding access to arts education. Lessons are highly tailored to your needs, whether you're preparing an art school portfolio, building skills for a passion project, or learning the fundamentals.

Each lesson is different--just like each student! To make sure you meet your goals, my tutoring structure revolves around three principles:

1. Deliberate Practice

Practice is key. But how do you practice correctly? While there is no single "right" way, knowing how to practice effectively can accelerate your improvement. I teach specific methods of drawing practice tailored to your goals, focusing on regular assignments and creating with an active mind.

2. Critique

This part isn't about tearing your artwork apart--it's about building your "eye skill" to find areas of improvement. I will critique your art using skills from years of art school, offering suggestions informed by industry experience. You'll learn how to look at art, determine what makes a successful piece, and use this knowledge to improve your own work.

3. Resources & Artist Network

Right now, creative communities are more important than ever! Beyond time in the studio or at your easel, learning from other artists is a great way to improve your art. I will share my working list of free and low-cost resources and tools for artists, as well as virtual and site-specific networking recommendations (in Philadelphia, PA).

As my student, you'll benefit from my years of experience working as an illustrator. My art has been recognized by New York's Society of Illustrators, The Philadelphia Sketch Club, and Moore College of Art & Design, where I earned my BFA. I've licensed illustrations to Dock Street Brewery and multiple independent publishers in addition to selling my own prints and originals.

If you're excited about the process of creating art, I'm the right tutor for you!

My lessons are best suited for emerging artists. First-time free lessons are 30 minutes.
