About Scribble and Sculpt

I have always been passionate about art. From a young age, my parents enrolled me in art classes, and I knew that creating was the only path for me. As I grew up, I focused on ceramic lessons. I loved the clay medium and all of its possibilities. My commitment to art paid off when I was accepted into the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) for my Bachelor's degree in Fine Art (BFA). After graduating, I worked for a gallery in the Baltimore/Washington area as an art consultant. I then went back to MICA to receive my master's degree in art teaching (MAT). After graduating, I worked in Maryland public schools as an art teacher in grades K-5 for three years. When I got married and relocated to New Jersey, I opened up my own art studio and got daycare certified. I teach all media including painting, drawing, ceramics and paper mache. My students have been accepted into prestigious art schools such as Parsons, MICA and Rutgers Mason Gross, and I also offer adult art classes which many of my former college graduates join. My name is Denise and I am a proud graduate of MICA with a BFA and MAT. I am passionate about sharing my love of art with others, and I am dedicated to helping students reach their artistic goals. My art studio classes are designed to teach students all media while also helping them with college portfolio preparation. I am proud that 100% of my students who have pursued the arts have been accepted into prestigious art schools.

Ages 9-12 4:15pm-6m

A wide variety of mediums will be explored. Clay, paint, drawing materials, plaster, collage, wire, mixed media, and more. Clay is excellent for fine motor development in younger students. I have my own kiln in the studio so we create a lot of vessels and sculptures. Immersion into many art forms allows for a well rounded young artist. Famous artists will also be linked to lessons, so students will be inspired and be able to recognize famous works. We will also create art outdoors, such as landscape sketches and other projects when the weather and the lesson are appropriate.
