Lori says, "When I retired, I knew I was interested in art, painting in particular. So, I took a water color class, where everyone advised me to start with a good drawing class. A friend recommended Marianne and I enrolled. The class has been immensely valuable. I think of the lessons I learned about form, composition, space, intensity, values and perspective every time I paint. Marianne gave me a really good foundation for both creating my own work and for enjoying the art I see. Marianne was so encouraging to me and everyone in her friendly and engaging class. Thanks Marianne!!" Read more

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

  • Make sure you have the right supplies if applicable.
  • Avoid making large payments up front.

What questions should I ask painting instructors?

When looking for local painting classes, ask the following questions:

  • How long have you been painting?
  • Do you allow walk-ins?
  • What type of paint would you recommend for my experience level?
  • What's your cancellation policy?
  • Do you have an age requirement?
  • How long are your classes?
  • Can I take my work home after class, or does it need to stay here to dry?
  • Will you give me an estimate and contract in writing?

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.

Jess assisted me in teaching a Pronto Plate Lithography demo and was really great, helping students when needed, but also letting them find their own way through the project.

To start, she made me feel relaxed, and I was a bit nervous because I've never thought I was good at any art stuff. Next, she made it fun! I was engaged the entire time, and she was encouraging me with each brush stroke. I was so impressed with my finished product that I wanted to do another! Great experience and such a talented artist. ♥️

Marianne gave me a series of drawing classes carefully graduated in complexity. She began with simple exercises in tone and slowly over five weeks taught me to observe light, composition, the uses of negative space, perspective, and form using light and shadow. From there she extended my education in creating visual art to painting, encouraging me in how to approach color, medium, and brushwork. She further encouraged me to explore the medium through classes with other teachers to broaden my exposure to various styles and approaches to painting. She has been unwavering in encouraging me to develop as an artist. And she approaches students as fellow artists, which is incredibly generous and affirming .

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!
