Liz Borst teaches advanced art classes to students ages 9-17 in Whitestone, NY. The small class size makes it easy for her to work individually with students and monitor their progress throughout the years. Many of the students have studied with Liz since first grade, and eventually show portfolios for entrance into NYC specialized high schools. Private lessons are available for HS and College admissions portfolio prep. The artists will learn to communicate feelings and ideas through their art, and understand the processes, techniques, and concepts they need to create exciting compositions.
