We're An Art Studio For Everyone!
We believe art and creativity can be taught, you don't have to start out with innate talent, but a desire to create and practice. So many of our students expect to be an expert after one visit to the art studio and are disappointed if they struggle at all during the process.
We are always careful to nurture our students to help them realize that practice is essential. Other activities or sports that they participate in require a tremendous amount of practice before they play the first game or get up on a stage to perform. When put into this context, they begin to understand that they don't have to put that kind of pressure on themselves and are able to enjoy every step of the learning curve.
Our students' success is of the utmost importance to us.
