Lily W. says, "My kids have been going to Diane for the past 4 or 5 years, maybe more as I've lost count. My oldest two girls have incredible arts skills especially with sketching and shading with detail that they would never have accomplished on their own without the foundation Diane gave them. My youngest hated drawing or coloring or anything to do with art but every summer, he would get excited about art camp and would produce fantastic pieces that he is very proud of. He's learned dimension and depth in his drawings and he is 9 years old now. My kids and I have had nothing but a great experience with Diane. They love her studio for the view and the peacocks on her property and enjoy the ice cream breaks. They love the art they produce with Diane's gentle guidance. Art and ice cream during the summer, what can be better than that!" Read more

Hi, Im a long time artist, drawing and painting for 20 yrs. I have an MFA from Pratt Institute in NY, and have been showing work for a while. I love to pass on my knowledge, experience, and unique observations. I'm skilled in drawing, figure drawing, acrylics, oils, pastels and graphic design. I like to find out as much as I can about the student and their art, and show them new paths. I'm also one to find life lessons hidden in the practice of drawing and painting. I like to keep it simple and ultimately try to teach the student how to make things easy on themselves.

There is nothing easy about resin. To do what I have learned to do so far (and I freely admit that I'm still a baby at this) I have spent a full year learning about the chemistry of different pigments - mica, spray paint, acrylics, inks, pastes, enamel... the list goes on and on, and how they interact with resin - thickening, thinning, and plain just not getting along. Taking that a step further and learning the different techniques used to exploit those characteristics. Learning the feel of resin and how to use color and composition with an unpredictable and fluid medium. Nothing about it is easy but everything about it is mesmerizing and ad

Your Painting Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

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:

  • Paints
  • Brushes
  • Easel
  • Canvas
  • Apron

  • What type of paint would you recommend for my experience level?
  • What's your cancellation policy?

Diana B.
Alfredo is a super mentor. He starts with basics but if you have experience he will go where you want. He works on a painting simultaneously with you. Color theory, Values, etc. Well worth it.

My daughter has been with Ms Wallace for 6 yrs now and learned different medium. She always enjoys going there, Diane is very patient with her students, she molds them to become great artist. Our daughter's love for art has significantly impoved since she attended her classes and as parents we are very satisfied with her. It is all worth it!!!!

Mandar is an amazing artist and he’s equally as wonderful with kids. This is our second year in painting class with Mandar and my two 7 year olds love it! Besides teaching them skills, Mandar always comes up with creative and engaging projects. My boys have come home with many new pieces of art they are very proud of (and are frame worthy at home too). Highly recommend!
