Helen Aldoroty Art Instructor

My artistic journey began in the early 1980’s. One day I came across a program “The Magic of Oil Painting" on TV that featured an artist named Bill Alexander. I was fascinated with his style of painting. Bill used a wet-on-wet oil painting technique that made it possible to complete an oil painting in a short period of time. I loved his upbeat and positive attitude. From that moment on I was hooked. I took every art class I could find in oils, acrylics, and watercolors. I loved all of them.

 

Before long I had an art studio of my own and became a certified instructor. In 1985 I was lucky enough to meet and work with another great TV artist Bob Ross. He was so generous with his help and support to me as an instructor. I am so glad that I got to know him and call him my friend.

​

Life has taken me in many different directions throughout the years. But one thing has always stayed with me and that is my passion for art and teaching others. I love hearing a student say "Wow I can’t believe I painted this!”  As a teacher there is no greater joy than seeing the excitement from a student who completes a painting for the first time.

 

You too can experience the joy and magic of painting.

As Bill Alexander would say “unleash your creative power!”
