About Rain Shi
Rain Shi is a passionate teaching artist who creates with a diverse range of mediums, including pencil, color pencils, watercolor, and oils.

A Tribute to Martina Pook:
Honoring a Legacy in Art Education
Since 2019, I have had the privilege of studying under Martina Pook, whose guidance has been instrumental in helping me find my dream job as an art teacher. Martina’s dedication to art education has touched the lives of many, including myself. She has spent over 3 decades sharing her vast knowledge, skills, and passion for art with countless students.
Now, as Martina has decided to step back from teaching, I wish to express my deepest gratitude and respect for her incredible contribution to the art community. Martina has compiled a wealth of useful information, tips, and insights on her website for her students and any art enthusiast.
To honour Martina's dedication, I have offered to purchase all her web content. My hope is to ensure that her hard work, wisdom, and invaluable resources continue to guide and inspire aspiring artists for years to come. It is my way of saying thank you to a remarkable teacher and mentor, and of keeping her legacy alive for the benefit of all.
Thank you sincerely, Martina, for everything you've done for us. Your boundless enthusiasm for both art and education will continue to be a source of inspiration.
