inside a kids class

Not craft kits. Actual art skills.

From pencil portraits of horses to pastel still lifes and imaginative scenes, kids work from real reference and learn the same fundamentals professional artists use, patiently guided one child at a time.

The result: children who leave every class proud of what they made, and a sketchbook that gets more impressive month after month.

imagination first

From a blank page to a whole world.

Kids draw and paint from imagination, memory, and reference, guided step by step so the ideas in their head actually make it onto the paper. Oil pastels, watercolor, marker, and mixed media come out to play every week.
