Mary Gibilisco believes that anyone can learn to create art - the only requirement is a desire to increase knowledge and painting skills. Her teaching method is patterned after the Old World Art Academies, in which the student learns the academic principles and techniques by duplicating the work of the Teacher/Master.

Derek Wicks is a frequent guest instructor at Paint for Joy. Since he was young, he thrived on the knowledge of how things work and the challenge of recreating them. His creative journey began with building plastic model kits in perfect detail. As a painter, Wicks has developed a distinctive style with strong dominate lighting and solid crisp lines. He teaches his students to be themselves, and allow their strengths to define them. Learn more about Derek Wicks on his website.
