Lori Hanson Art

My 14 & 15 year olds children have been taking lessons with Lori for a few months now. She has a creative and pressure free way of teaching and allowing their inner artists to develop. It's been amazing to watch their progress in acrylic painting and pencil drawing in such a short time. Art theory is woven into applicable lessons to use right away. But my favorite part is seeing how very proud they are of their own work.

I contacted Lori to paint a portrait of me, my sister and our dad who passed away when we were small. We don’t have any pictures with him so I wanted to get something special where we were all together. After explaining everything to Lori she did not disappoint! She painted a beautiful picture and I will treasure it forever! She’s super talented and I’m happy I got in touch with her to create this special memory.

"Lori has combined her talent of art and teaching to inspire children for several years. I found her to be enthusiastic with a well thought out curriculum, and is kind and loving towards children. I highly recommend her“ -Ami R. head of THRIVE Academy
