Instructor

“It simply isn’t an adventure worth telling if there aren’t any dragons.” - J. R. R. Tolkien

Marhiah is a self-taught artist from Arizona who has been painting and drawing since she was a kid. She loves exploring multimedia art by combining watercolor, colored pencils, ink, and recycled materials. From traditional paintings to clay miniatures, Marhiah draws inspiration from artists like Beatrix Potter, Alan Lee, and Brian Froud to help bring fantastical ideas to life. She hopes to help young artists gain the confidence they need to explore their creativity in an openminded and kind environment.

Outside of art Marhiah loves hanging with her pitbull Hank, going antiquing, and spending time outdoors.
