Art Classes
for Children
in-Person
Materials are not included in the cost of these classes. I provide detailed recommendations and links about the materials you need.
Each studio session has a duration of 2 hours, providing ample time for instruction, practice, and exploration. You don't need any special skills to attend our drawing classes; they are designed to be accessible and suitable for beginners.
We primarily work with acrylic paints, although older children have the option to use oil paints. I also incorporate simple pencils into our lessons to cover various techniques and aspects of drawing. During each art class session, I strike a balance between theory and practical application. The aim is to equip you with valuable skills and techniques. To keep the classes engaging, I often infuse creative tasks that allow immediately apply and demonstrate newly acquired knowledge. Classes can be held both individually and of two people, ensuring personalized attention and guidance.
We meet once a week! Come to explore, learn, and create together!

If circumstances allow you to come to class 5 minutes earlier, then do it! :) Kid will have enough time to prepare and tune in to the Session :)
-
Please draw in clothes that you don't mind getting dirty, or maybe you have some clothes you don't like, or wear a waterproof apron to protect your clothes :) The paint does not wash out of clothes, unfortunately.
-
Do your kid's hair so that the hair wouldn't distract, and your kid wouldn't touch it in the process of drawing. Paint can get into the hair. But the good news is that the paint is washed off the body and hair.
