Derek McElheron is one of the most outgoing and friendly people you’ll meet at the AHA studio. He teaches with heart and with the knowledge that everyone has the creative spark to make art! Derek is not only a teacher, he is also a talented artist in his own right with particularly special gifting for acrylic and watercolor. Derek has been teaching art to others for other over twenty years and when he’s not creating in the studio, he’s spending time with his beloved wife and daughter.
