About Irma Ward. . .
a Liliedahl-Certified Oil Painting Instructor

Irma Ward made an unusual millennium resolution: She decided it was time to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming an artist.  In January 2000, Irma enrolled in oil painting classes at a local college. That was all it took to hook her on oil painting and convince her that she was heading in the right direction to do the job she would love.

Irma holds a degree in business administration from the University of Texas at Arlington, and has studied fine arts at Tarrant County College and with several independent artists. Irma is certified as a Fine Art Instructor of Traditional Oil Painting by the Liliedahl Fine Art Studio.

“I have been blessed with the opportunity to take lessons and workshops from some very fine art instructors. None, however, have taught as much or inspired me to share through teaching as Johnnie Liliedahl has. I am proud of achieving certification through Johnnie and love passing along my knowledge to others.”

Today, Irma works out of her home studio in Arlington, Texas, where she paints, gives art lessons, and organizes and conducts “Team Art” workshops for business clients.  Irma conducts weekly classes at the Trinity Arts Guild and intends to expand her teaching schedule to include workshops in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and other U.S. locations.
