I discovered my passion for art during my youth when the only areas of school I was attracted to were areas that involved some kind of art. With this in mind, I decided to continue and explore this passion. I got my Bachelor’s Degree in Design from the “Universidad Iberoamericana” in Mexico City and studied painting at “Isabel Lenero” school of Arts. I moved to Austin, Texas eight years ago and was able to take picture book workshop in order to illustrate professionally.
I worked for 4 years as a docent at the Blanton Museum of Arts, and currently working as a freelance artist and designer besides teaching art.
"I love experimenting with materials and techniques. I strongly believe that no matter how skilled we become, with practice, there is always room for improvement.”
Ms. Luz Marie teaches at our Southwest Location. She has classes for students ages 4 through adults.
In addition to traditional drawing and painting, she also loves to teach students the basics of digital drawing, painting and illustration.
