Through in depth demonstrations, solid foundational technical information, and a focus on the most pertinent concepts I develop individual lesson plans for each student so they can grow specifically in the direction they want their art to flourish.

Based in Chandler Arizona, I am a painter and art instructor. Painting for me initially started as a hobby before I decided to make a profession out of it. I always like to sketch and paint, so I decided to enroll in Art instruction School for formal lessons. Later I decided to start teaching as a way to spread the joy of paintings to others. I like to experiment with the subject matter of my painting. My favorites are landscape, still-life, building, and portraits. My painting mediums are acrylic, watercolor, and charcoal. I offer semi-private painting class for kids and adults. I also do painting parties for Birthdays, ladies night ou

I am an intuitive mixed media artist and illustrator that loves to blend basic art lessons along with the necessary emotional deep-dive that my meditative art practices help provide. I hope to help my students find their own inner voice and find what they REALLY want to say with their art, rather than using forced imagery to say it for them. I love teaching others how to express themselves through meditative art. Helping others learn an easy way to find their inner peace and answers within themselves is what gives me the greatest feeling of fulfillment, and so I chase that feeling constantly through my students, for which I am eternally grate...

Torri L. says, "John is a great teacher. He is patient with explaining each action, he teaches the name of each move, and he is flexible with pacing. I requested to speed up some moves pretty early once I felt comfortable and he was receptive. He is full of knowledge and explained some of the history and meaning behind the teaching which I enjoyed and did not expect. I am doing Chi Gung to manage stress, back pain, and retrain my breathing. It's working and I'm happy with the teachings." Read more

Your Painting Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do painting classes cost?

Painting classes cost $200 to $500 for a 5- to 10-week course, or $20 to $80 per person for a single session. Local, city-sponsored classes typically cost less than private lessons or college courses. Some painting classes offer discounts for friends, children, or other groups.

Some instructors include all materials in their prices, while others require that you buy some or all of them yourself. Online painting classes can be done anywhere and can be paused as needed without slowing anyone else down.

How long are painting classes?

Painting classes usually last 1 to 3 hours¸ depending on the age group, experience level, and location. Kids' classes are shorter than adult or college-level classes and are sometimes only available during certain hours of the day.

What kind of painting class is best for beginners?

Acrylic paint is best for beginners because it is easy to work with, easy to clean up, and dries quickly. Watercolor paint is also convenient and easy to clean up, but it is harder to work with and correct mistakes. Oil paints are best for beginner or intermediate painters with some experience.

Where can I take painting classes?

You can take painting classes from local rec centers, colleges, private instructors, and paint-and-sip shops. Paint-and-sip businesses provide materials and instructions for students to complete while socializing and drinking or eating.

What do I bring to painting classes?

Some classes provide all of the paint and supplies. Others do not, and you will have to buy your own. This may include any of the following:
