Instructor: Patty Schafbuch

Patty Schafbuch

I have been a professional artist for over 25 years. I create pet portraits on commission, teach oil/acrylic painting at Petersen Art Center and enjoy painting in plein air as well as in studio. I earned my degree in Graphic Design and Illustration. I've been honored with a few ribbons, including Best of Show. My husband and I are Utah natives and enjoy time with our family.

What Students are Saying:

"Patty is a marvelous teacher. It was such an interesting class! I just wish it was ongoing. But I certainly plan to take any future classes she may teach!"
-Elizabeth S.

"Patty is wonderful. She can take any learner at any level and have them feel they are able to pursue pastels. She is patient, thoughtful, and helpful on an individual level. She also tries to help show learners less expensive ways to pursue and practice pastels."
-Constance G.

"Patty was a great instructor. I appreciated how she taught a class of people with mixed experience and tailored feedback to everyone depending on their skill level."
