About this pro
NEW: I'm pleased to announce that I'm offering one on one online classes now!
No prerecorded videos, same interactive art classes tailored to your needs, or include a friend for extra fun! Contact me for details and let's get started from the comfort of your own home!
Everyone ‘s learning style is different, especially when it comes to art, because it’s extremely creative.
This is why I customize my lessons to meet the individual needs of each of my students. And it works !!!
I am very understanding if a need to reschedule occurs, life is just too busy :(
People and Art are my passion, which makes it very easy to connect with students of various ages and backgrounds.
It's a joy to see your student walking out of the door with a completed piece of art! Makes me so happy !

I love the patience and care she has with my 5 year old. You can tell how much she loves to teach children, and my kid really enjoys learning art from Mstudio West.

Karina is super patient and has a lot of different techniques and options to teach for beginners like myself. She does a great job of making you feel comfortable and creates a relaxing envirornment for newcomers to painting (bonus points for her awesome dog!). Very happy to have found her on here as I’ve been looking for painting classes for a while in DC without luck. Highly recommend!

Karina is a really great teacher no matter how experienced you are! She doesn’t micromanage and she lets you decide how you want the class to go, but provides guidance and suggestions along the way. I started classes just to find a stress relieving hobby and it has been great for me! She makes sure that the class is for YOU and your preferences, and not for her. I would highly recommend her as an instructor!
