Hello, I am Dezarre Boone. I am a San Antonio-based Art Educator with 4 years of experience. I received recently earned my Masters in Art Education from Boston University in May 2020. I have always loved art and I believe that everyone is an artist! When I am not in the classroom or in the studio, I am probably watering my plants or taking care of my fur baby, Luna.
Hi, I’m Isabelle! Art literally runs in my family blood and has been my passion for years which lead to me earning my Bachelor’s in art. I also used to be a elementary teacher pre-COVID times which has left me a love of teaching others. I just got married and my husband and I are working on our new life together. My interests also include designing and sewing cosplays. I have participated in a few cosplay contests in the past and even won a few best in show titles! As long as it’s creative, I am down for it.

Hi there, I'm Marissa! I'm known around for being a high-school art teacher and free-time photographer. I graduated from St. Mary's University in 2018 with my Bachelor's in Art Education. I've always been big on art in all its forms, but painting has always been a favorite of mine. Outside of that, you can find me playing Animal Crossing, watching a crime series, or hanging out with Winnie and Jasmine (world's most spoiled housecats).
Hello there. My name is Natalie, and once upon a time I was an art student with a passion for character illustration. I changed to Biology so I could work with animals, but continued to draw on my free time. About 6 years ago, I tried painting for the first time at Painting with a Twist and instantly fell in love. Currently, landscapes are my favorite subject. My preferred mediums are oils and acrylics, and I am not afraid to get messy enjoying the process of putting paint to the canvas. I am known for putting killer whales in all my paintings involving water, and having a major obsession with the video game "Final Fantasy VII."
Hi, I'm Nicole! I discovered my passion for painting about 6 years ago. My strength was being put to the test during that time. I put a paintbrush in my hand and the moment it hit the canvas, I knew I'd found my way of coping in life. I specialize in abstract art, mainly through fluid pouring, but I almost always manipulate my paintings through the use of objects. Everyday I find myself looking for things I feel I can use to add to a paintings uniqueness. I do enjoy painting pictures with a paintbrush, but my preference for getting lost in my art, is to have less of an idea of what I'm painting until it's complete. I look at art as therapy. When emotional struggle sets in, painting is always the ray of sunshine I require to feel better. I dabble in resin and clay art as well, but my passion is and will always be acrylics on canvas. Aside from my art, my pride and joy is my (almost 7 year old) son and my fur-babies.
