Stuart P. says, "I started with zero experience in any form of art. After 3 or 4 weeks of working with Anatol I understood the basic concepts and was drawing at a level I could not first imagine. I would highly recommend him. He practices patience and going about it the right way" Read more

Fran Art is the result of years of practice (18) and studying. I studied Art and Art education in Chile, my country. Art is my passion and love, and that's what I will transmit to my students. I have teach children and adults. Right now I am a member of Montgomery Artists Association and Wheaton Arts Parade Gallery. You can check my work on Instagram @franart715 and soon I will be able to launch my new website. Art is a world language, is a connection with other people, the world and your own. Specially in difficult times is healing and enriches the soul. I enjoy seeing my students process and getting the most out of their creativity and tale...

The important things in life are not what we normally consider important. Money, career, progress, success, work: when it comes to finding ourselves in this world and judging it worthy of existence, their minds are very tiny things. The FEELINGS and MOODS are important, through the COLORS and SOUL of a world that we live. (Wass Albert)

Your Painting Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

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?

I started as a complete beginner in drawing. Anatol was great in teaching me the basics, and my drawing skills clearly improved over the short time I worked with him. He is also very pleasant. I will be back working with him soon. Stuart
