Janet K. says, "I have been with Gordon for quite a few years. He's a wonderful teacher helping you to learn how to really paint - what's a good composition - understanding color theory - the importance of drawing skills as well as the study of techniques. Over the years he has gone from being teacher to mentor and now he is the "voice in my head" as I create and critique my own work. I can go to Gordon any time about any medium and he will lead me to answers that are right for me. It doesn't get better than Gordon." Read more

I am a locally based studio artist with a belief that being an artist is based on the approach you take to life. We are all artistic in some area, and finding how to apply that to a new craft is the enthusiasm I share with others. I love the opportunity to discover elements which speak to me, that I then make a part of my own story by incorporating them into my artistic process. Only a small portion of this process and its products are used commercially, but each help fuel lifestyle and perspective on the balance and purposes creativity. This who appreciate the arts are encouraged to expand their perspectives while working alongside my variou...

After leaving the corporate world and a pretty great salary, I've committed to nothing but my passion for photography. From managing a portrait studio to owning my own photography buisness I enjoy every aspect and approach to using a camera as a way of capturing light. My portfolio ranges from photojournalism, studio portraiture all the way to abstract micro photography. After graduating from UNF with a Bachelors degree in Photography, I have found that I truly enjoy teaching people how to use the camera as a form of expression. Everything. I'm literally helping people how to communicate without words. I find it incredible that in order to ha...

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

  • Do you allow walk-ins?
  • What type of paint would you recommend for my experience level?
  • What's your cancellation policy?

I have learned so much from Stephen. He is knowledgeable, patient, and teaches you how to look at things from a different perspective. He also teaches many different mediums. If you want to start learning how to create your own art I recommend starting classes with Stephen. You'll be happy you did.

Miles is a wonderful teacher. He's teaching my 11yr old daughter skateboarding. He is patient, kind, and really takes to the time to understand the way she learns. It's been great to see her go from shy to taking risks with each class. He is genuinely just as excited and proud as I am when he sees her master a new skill. I'm sure she'll be a skater for life because of Miles.
