Courtney Dutra Art

Introduction: I have studied painting and drawing at Boston University for two years and the Maryland Institute-College of Art for the two years before that. In addition to my undergraduate studies, I have studied at a number of other private art collages and schools. (The New Hampshire Institute of Art, Maine College of Art, Sanctuary Arts Center) Last year I studied at Accademia di Belle Arti in Venice, Italy. I have professional work experience in both gallery and museum settings.When painting I work primarily with oil paint and watercolor but I have experience in a great range of mediums. These are reviews from recent students: The original reviews can be found on my Wyzant profile website. There is a link to the original reviews on my personal website under the contact page. This link can be found below. "Dedicated, Highly Skilled, and Great for any level! After only 3 sessions with Courtney, I feel like my painting and drawing skills have greatly improved. She was a great listener and always asked me what I was looking for in the next session, and she would adjust her plans for me accordingly. I came into lessons a complete beginner, and Courtney knew the essential steps in teaching me from the bottom up- she even helped me pick out the right tools and materials and was eager to share hers with me as well. Courtney really took the time to plan out each of our sessions, and I felt like we always used the time we had efficiently to the very last minute. I highly highly recommend her for any level- in fact, my brother (who is of a much higher skill level than I am) will be starting lessons with her shortly!" — Lani "Amazing and very skilled Courtney was amazing and very skilled. She was very patient in teaching me how to make everything proportional and taught me a couple of tips and tricks on making painting easier. Overall highly recommended and amazing artist." — Ali I have always enjoyed tutoring, students especially in the field of the arts, because it allows me to share my knowledge and passion of painting and drawing.
