Ravin P. says, "James Price & The Acting Studio provide a solid foundation. I knew I was in good hands from the very first 'Intro to Meisner' class. I'm proud to say I finished the whole program. James' understanding of the craft and his ability to convey it to his students is truly a gift. The training is solid and it's great that he provides the space for you to practice your craft outside of the classroom in the bi-monthly LAB and various festivals held throughout the year. I go back often for coaching and to work on audition material and scenes in the LAB. The Acting Studio is my home." Read more

Jensy D. says, "Juan Ramiro is the best Art Teacher you can ever find for your kid and grown up. With enthusiasm he show the basic principles of Art to those who are beginners, and the most advanced techniques for those who has some knowledge and want to dive deep into art. My son was 5-year-old when Ramiro became his Art Teacher. Immediately we noticed a lot improvements, technique and the better approach of the space and color- on every detail. One of the best perk for the kids is that, the Ramiro's students participate in many Art Exhibitions around the Tri-State area and also, international. That build confident to our new Artists. We are so blessed to have Ramiro as my son's Art Teacher. He is the Best. We recommend him 100%!" Read more

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

  • 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?

  • Can I take my work home after class, or does it need to stay here to dry?

Art Workshop (Friday Evening) 8/11/2018 Steve M. "Raphael-Raul was a very helpful teacher. Others were drawing and some new to drawing but he still took time to ensure everyone received his attention. The studio was intimate with tons of art everywhere just what you would think a real working studio should look like. Super close to subway and easy to get in... Look forward to returning for more.
