About Rivky
Rivky Shimon is the founder of Rivky's Art Workshop and the creator of the Rivky Method.
She is an internationally acclaimed artist and art teacher. Rivky was born in Tel Aviv, Israel and grew up there for sixteen years before moving to the United States.
In Israel, art is a part of the school curriculum and that introduction really opened her up into having such a passion for working in art and then, teaching it. Her teacher noticed her abilities when she was 7 and her teacher kept a close watch over Rivky's growth in art.
When she was about 9 or 10 years old, her teacher suggested to Rivky's mother that Rivky be allowed to take private classes in addition to the classes she was taking in school. That attention and the additional art experience brought out the little artist sitting inside of her.
She nurtured that little artist throughout the years as her talents were further developed under the tutelage of world-renowned European artists such as Gita Stern, Roman Yusin and Ted Fogel. She became an internationally acclaimed artist as well as a teacher over 17 years.
Over the years, she taught thousands of students and her teaching experiences have helped her develop the Rivky Method. When she learned how people respond to art and how they learn to adjust to her teachings, she was able to craft the Rivky Method into what it is today.
