Kathleen K. says, "I’m a semi-retired professional looking to fill my free time learning a new skill in the Arts! I was very fortunate to be placed in a class with Ms. Jennie Schut as my teacher. Jennie is a marvelous instructor demonstrating her vast knowledge in her field. My class was filled with first- time students as well as students who continue to gain experience each semester. Jennie teaches her skills with kindness I wisdom and always with a belief to assist students with their own imagination. Jennie loves all faucets of her field and helps each and every student open their own belief system and desire to learn. Jennie has a gentle nature and a lovely way of expressing suggestions any assistance a student might request.

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:
