Meet the Paint and Sip Instructor

Natasha is a painter and art director with a degree in fine arts from Morgan State University. She is originally from Rockland County, NY but now operates out of Baltimore, MD. She has the expertise to create original paintings for each party upon the request of the host and break down the instruction so that anyone can follow along. She finds joy in teaching people who haven't picked up a brush since school how to create works of art. Seeing clients walk away with something they would be proud of hanging on their wall is what drives her. 

Natasha started The Loaded Canvas in the fall of 2014 after getting requests from friends with busy schedules and small kids who wanted to experience a night of painting with buddies - but couldn't find time to travel to a painting night at a bar. The in-home paint party experience turned out to be convenient for both the hosts and the guests. Over time, the services have expanded to include childrens parties, private portrait commissions, mural painting, and live event painting for weddings, etc.
