The Tiny Artist studio provides a fun and creative atmosphere for all who enter. My teaching methods are kid friendly as I explain the basics clearly and simply. I believe with a good base and continued direction I can guide them into more difficult projects and eventually they begin to develop their own style.

Whether the students are 5 years old or 80 years old, I will find out how painting will be a satisfying and learning experience. Let’s enjoy the moment and reach for higher levels of learning and improving. I have worked with many people who have continued to paint.Thats the best recommendation. My first art teacher not only taught me the theory of painting but also taught me about giving back. I get great satisfaction from beginners successes and their big smiles when they finish a project. I try to keep it simple and let the students challenge themselves....

I offer a fluid approach to creating artwork. I provide the basic framework for composition and then explore feeling and context. Theory and self exploration are key. I enjoy helping people reach deep inside themselves and overcoming self doubt. There is a great sense of relief when you begin to trust yourself and push past what you think you're capable of.

Christine B. says, "Lorry was very welcoming and intuned with the crowd. Lorry was very encouraging to those including myself that were unsure of how to paint. Lorry was patient and easy to follow with her simple prompts. I loved the basic set up and the greenery of the garden. I felt that I had everything I needed for my comfort. Space was small and intimate. I liked that it was not overcrowded. Though the address was not posted (I understood) Lorry was pleasant over the phone and emailed me the information promptly. I look forward to attending other events hosted by Lorry in the future." 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

What questions should I ask painting instructors?

When looking for local painting classes, ask the following questions:

  • 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?
  • How long are your classes?
  • Can I take my work home after class, or does it need to stay here to dry?
  • Will you give me an estimate and contract in writing?

Lisa is a very patient, focused and experienced art teacher. She can teach in any medium and help you create a piece you never thought you could create. She has vast knowledge in art history and techniques and shares nuggets along the way to help guide you through the journey of making art. Don't pass up an opportunity to work with this gem of a teacher.

It’s an holistic experience, very empowering, it takes care of the knowledge but also about the awareness related to creativity, and Adam really pays attention to me, to me as a person and to me as an artist, the experiences I’ve had before only pay attention to the group as one thing, difficult to have a teacher that looks to the eyes of each one when they talk to you
