I’m a really great artist, but not much of a teacher. I can talk you through a really great oil painting session, and show you how to free yourself into a raw canvas and make sense of it.

As an artist that has been creating for two decades, I am always learning new things and perspectives on art and the process. Always trying new things and finding the curiousity to mix my passions of art and comic books and science. To be able to engage in all aspects of the minds beauty. I believe that teaching is also a part of that learning process. To teach someone that they can create some thing beautiful and see from a new perspective, I believe is what makes the Art world so amazing and intriguing. Not the art that you create but the connection and emotions that you evoke within another human being when they view your perspective. Whet

I am an art therapist and can help you tap into your inner power. I have been a self taught the painter for ten years now. I love releasing all of passions into paintings. I specialize in acrylic paintings but venture off into mixed mediums. I am great to work with if you are looking to get into art as therapy and have your own freedom to create.

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:

  • Paints
  • Brushes
  • Easel
  • Canvas
  • Apron

  • 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?
