Painting Lessons With a Classically Trained Artist

Briannna E.

Emily is so patient with my 6 year old son. She has all kinds of teaching techniques to keep him interested and really encourages him to use his creativeness to express himself. If we miss a week of lessons, my son wants to know why he hasn't seen Emily in 7 days. It's so hard to find someone so compassionate and understanding of a 6 year old mind. As my son would say, 1000/10 for Emily

Without reservation, I would recommend taking an art class from Madhavi. I joined her for a painting of a Buddha for my house. Madhavi not only guided me with the technique and colors, but also had a positive and encouraging attitude that brings the best. Thank you so much for your patience and glad to have learnt from an immensely talented artist like you.
