About
-
The duration of each Studio session is 2 (two) hours.
-
We draw in acrylic (or oil paints if older children) and simple pencils.
-
Each Art Class session is a combination of theoretical and practical parts.
-
We draw still-lifes to learn how to measure, compose objects in a format, construct, and study perspectives, shades. These are very boring classes, they are usually designed not for beauty, but for gaining useful skills in technology and understanding how the volume of objects is transferred on a flat surface. I will dilute these paintings with something interesting and creative in order to immediately try to apply skills and I will look at how well the knowledge is applied.
-
Classes are held in the Studio individually or in groups of three people maximum in each group.
-
There are several days to choose from for classes and different times.
-
To attend drawing classes, you do not need special skills.

You can always get into Group any day of the month.

-
please draw in clothes that you are dot 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 kid's hair so that the hair wouldn't distract, and your kid wouldn't touch it with hands 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.
