Rebecca Faubion
Cofounder, Lesson Designer & Teacher
Ever since I was 10 years old, I have wanted to build a bridge between the vast treasury of the art world, and the education of everyday kids. This desire has led me to live in Africa and Italy, to earn my masters in Education at Harvard, and to continuously pursue the best methods for teaching art. As a writer, curriculum designer, artist, teacher, and mom, I love to share the joy of creativity with others!
Ben Faubion
Cofounder, Illustrator & Graphic Designer
I’m a second-generation artist and although a lot of my work is digital, nothing compares to the activity of making stuff with my hands. As a designer, metal craftsman, and illustrator, I love to teach kids to draw with a knowledge of perspective and dynamic form. Feel free to check out Minicrew where I use illustration and humor to impart valuable life lessons—kind of like coaching for creatives using comics!
“If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.”
