Langert Fine Art Studio

If the student is a beginner, we start with learning how to mix color and I teach basic color theory, composition, and brush technique.  We do this by actually mixing color and applying to a color wheel.  The student will develop an eye for color and have plenty of hands-experience applying color in a painting.  I then choose a very basic picture for the student to begin and complete a painting as I demonstrate brush and palette knife technique on canvas. Once the student completes their first painting, I have a good idea of their skill level and I work individually with each one from there.  The second project in the class is chosen based on this information.  My goal is encourage each student to express their unique creativity at evey step.  Of course, the more they paint the faster they proceed.   

I am a professonal artist who has been exhibiting my own work for 19 years.  I trained at the San Francisco Academent of Art and the Jean Henry Impressionism School of Art if San Francisco and was mentored by Jean Henry, master impressionist for 13 years.  I owned and operated a Fine Art Gallery for 10 years in California.  My work hangs in corporate and private dwellings across the US and in Europe.

I charge $50 per hour for private lesson geared toward a specific goal for experienced painters only and the time length of the class is by the hour as needed. Otherwise if you pay as you go the charge is $112 for 3 hr class or $398 for a series of four classes paid up front. You save $50. This may or may not be a group classes depending on schedule. Group classes are very small at this time, not more than four students at a time. Regular students may drop in for a group class, space permitting, for $112 per three hour class.
