Sheri P. says, "Alfredo is a fantastic instructor! I had tried to self teach by following YouTube videos, but nothing I found taught me with the intricate methods of the masters. He starts everyone out with a fairly easy master copy that he paints along with you so you can ask questions as you paint. And this first painting has the added bonus of starting you out with a high level of confidence and motivation because he makes sure it is terrific at the end. He has taught me about glazing, value studies , imprimatura, ala prima painting and more! I’ve been studying with Alfredo for nearly a year and I’m constantly amazed at how fast my skills have improved. It was honestly the best decision I made when I started painting." 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?

  • 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?

He is so knowledgeable and such an awesome teacher
Painting Lessons With a Classically Trained Artist
Hala N.
My daughter has been taking art classes with Kasey for about 2 months and she has learned so much in a very short time. She is enjoying every moment during the class with Kasey and is improving her skills at a very fast pace. Kasey is very nice and kind and his teaching approach is wonderful. He explains the methods and allows her try on her own and then they discuss together how to improve. He is always very responsive if she has questions during the week if we have questions about new art supplies. We commute to Kasey’s studio for about 45min every weekend and me and my daughter feel what she’s learning is worth the ride. Highly recommended!!!
