Art Endeavours
Seriously decisive art courses from a seriously dedicated instructor
Hi there! My name is Anna Whalen. I'm an artist and instructor based in Nova Scotia. For more than 30 years, I've been combining my passion for art and teaching to help people learn the skills to create amazing pieces. If you've always wanted to find success in drawing or painting, please read on and get in touch. I'd love to hear from you!
About
I'm a life long Nova Scotian, went to school at NSCAD and taught high school in NL, NB & NS for over 30 years. That's a lot of teenagers, but I truly loved it. We created amazing things together and I'm sharing that built knowledge through these classes with new learners, mostly adults but also serious students ages 17 & up.
​
I live in the Mahone Bay area, I paint as much as I can (check out my website) and I spend a lot of time walking the trails with my dogs. Very grateful to be here!
​
I have a bachelor's degree from NSCAD, a Studio Program Certificate from NSCAD and a master's from University of British Columbia. Art Education has been my primary focus of study, painting and art history are my minors. I have several national awards and regional awards for innovation in art education and teaching successful programs.
