From the start, Rebecca felt a calling to nurture creative expression not only in herself but in as many other people as possible. Beyond the traditional "art school" setting that can be rigid and strict, Rebecca knew there was a huge need for a nurturing, encouraging and positive approach to artistic self-expression. This much-needed creative urban sanctuary filled with warmth, inspiration, and joy didn't exist anywhere... so Rebecca created it herself, and The Art Studio NY was born in 2004. With close to 100 art classes weekly and thousands of monthly students, Rebecca and her NYC art studio team help people to find fulfillment, personal passion, relaxation and joy through unleashing their inner-artist.

Rebecca has been praised for her creative success in New York Magazine, Time Out New York, The Boston Globe, The Dallas Morning News, The Village Voice, and on television networks including NBC, ABC, TLC, Japan's #1 Fuji Network, and on E!'s Kourtney and Kim Take New York.
