Hello, what is Drawing? Drawing helps develop the brain, hands, eyes, and soul. Drawing is an art that makes life brighter and more interesting. But how to teach a child to draw? No worries, I'm here - Alexandra, a professional educator and artist. I graduated from art school and the academy of design and arts, so I know a thing or two about drawing. I will come to your home and teach your child to draw using various materials: pencils, markers, watercolors, gouache, oil. I will also introduce them to great artists and show how to draw from imagination and observation. I work with children and not only from 6 to 100 years old. 😉 I hope your

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:

Shaun really provides great resources so that you can continue to practice and learn on your own. He showed me an easier way to make different characters and put them in a story scene. Before that I couldn't really draw my own stories.
