“When I wanted to learn about impasto painting I thought of asking Alexandra Flood, a young, contemporary painter whose work I admired. I asked  if I could hire her to spend a day working one-on-one with me in her studio……..I learned more about materials and techniques during those few hours than I had over years in art school because the instruction was so tuned toward my specific needs. I would highly recommend this experience to any painter: emerging or established.”
-Bonny Hill, painter/ art teacher

“The first time I enrolled in a painting class, I was most fortunate to have  Alexandra teaching us. From the start , it was an enlightening experience. She is a knowledgeable and talented teacher. She praised our efforts and painlessly steered us to where we recognized what we needed to work on for improvement. Since then, I have taken a few classes more with her and after each one I feel  more excitement with my work. I can’t wait for the next class!!!”

“The acrylic workshop with the brilliant Alexandra Flood was very enlightening! I love painting in my spare time but I’ve only taken a few art courses, so I was ready to be steered in the right direction with Alexandra’s tips and instruction. During the class it was wonderful to watch her sweep paint all around with that awesome glazing technique of hers. Each step was demonstrated before we attempted the next layer. It was a great time in such a relaxing environment, plus we all went home with a big piece of art!”
