I specialize in nature photography. But also cities and architecture. Field trips are a must for me, it is the best way to engage the photographer with the camera. Forest trails, beaches, reflections, waterfalls, wildlife.. The earth is the photographers playground. I worked for Vero Beach Magazine in Florida for a while and had some fun opportunities.

Growing up in Columbia, Tennessee, with an art teacher as our mother, we always practiced creativity & imaginationin our house. Every summer and school holiday, we spent hours painting, drawing, making playdough, creating found object collages, and much more. While we played, we were encouraged to reflect on our experiences in art-making to increase curiosity and grow intellectually. These warm memories of risk and reward fueled by imagination are what motivated us to create the Little Art House. We hope to provide inviting opportunities for people to imagine, explore, and create in a comfortable, encouraging environment. Please ...

✨ Self-Portrait Sessions: Art as a Mirror for the Soul ✨ This isn’t just a painting class to me; it’s an invitation to come home to yourself. I created my Self-Portrait Sessions as a guided creative journey for anyone who feels stuck, disconnected, or unsure of the person staring back in the mirror. Through the simple yet powerful act of painting your own likeness, I help you look deeper than the surface, beyond appearance and into essence. Together, we explore the stories, beliefs, and emotions that shape how you see yourself, and we gently shift the lens toward truth, compassion, and possibility. This work isn’t about how “good” your art

How much do art classes cost near me?

Art classes cost $20 to $50 for a one-time session or $100 to $500 for a class including 6 to 10 weekly sessions. Prices for art classes depend on your location, the type of art, the school or museum offering the class, and whether the fee includes materials and art supplies. Most art instructors provide a list of the required supplies which you must purchase separately.

Can you take art classes online?

You can take art classes online through CreativeLive, Udemy, ed2go, and art specialty websites like New Masters Academy (NMA) or The Art Studio NY. Many museums, universities, studios, and individual artists also offer online art classes.

Prices for online art classes are similar to in-studio classes and primarily depend on the instructor's artistic reputation and whether the course features prerecorded videos or is held live.

What types of art classes are available?

Popular art classes offered in most locations include:

  • Drawing and sketching
  • Painting with watercolor, oil, acrylics, or pastels
  • Printmaking
  • Fabric painting

  • Glasswork
  • Fiber arts

Before you take the next step in your creative journey, follow these tips to ensure you find an art class that's a good fit for you:

  • First, determine what type of art you'd like to learn.
  • Decide if you want to take a one-time workshop or a multi-week course.
  • Read instructor reviews on Lessons and Google.
  • Browse their portfolio of artwork created by their past students.
  • Ask about fees, class sizes, and supplies needed.
