About

Hi there!

I am a visual artist in Oakland.

you can see my fine art at http://www.danazed.com

This site is about my time with children
It all started when my 2 kids were in elementary school and I was the PTA person trying to get more time and more quality art instruction at school.
I wasn’t having a lot of success.
At the end of the 2007 summer one mother said to me, “Why don’t you just teach it yourself after school?” so I started to do that. I thoroughly enjoy facilitating creativity and have been hosting kids classes ever since it was suggested to me.

My ceramics classes are a great way for kids of different ages to socialize together as they confidently make projects they are proud of.
For me and for them, it’s a lot of fun to be in the class.
