Hey,

I’m Ashley

I’m Ashley Rodriguez Reed, artist, educator, and your kid’s new favorite art mentor. I teach art from my home studio outside of Tokyo and online, so kids get real immersive English practice while creating work they’re proud of. For adults, I host relaxed, roll-up-your-sleeves workshops where you’ll leave with fresh ideas, a piece you love, and maybe a little paint on your elbows.

And when I’m not teaching, I’m making my own fine art and textiles rooted in story, nature, and a deep love for sustainable design.

…that reflects your vibrant, multifaceted, and endlessly inspiring journey.

Come print, brush bold color, and make messes in a studio where everyone’s welcome. From beginners to lifelong makers, we make art that’s experimental and builds real confidence in your voice.
