I have a BA in illustration from Moore College Of Art & Design. Since graduating in 2005, I have taught art, painted murals with the Philadelphia Mural Arts, and worked as a Sign Artist for Trader Joe

Makeda is an excellent teacher who makes art fun! She helped me break out of my comfort zone into drawing portraits for the first time. An amazing artist herself, she is committed to helping you grow by introducing new techniques and gently challenging habits. Her presence is encouraging and enjoyable. Thank you Makeda!
