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)

McKenzie says, "Art challenges people to think in new ways. The fine arts provide a rich opportunity to connect with students in ways other subjects do not. At the same time, they provide cross-curricular connections that can strengthen critical thinking, cultural awareness and student skills in subjects ranging from social studies to science to language arts."

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?

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?

Before our session began I had a clear idea of what I would be learning with their program. They also made it so easy to understand the material and I felt comfortable asking for different explanations. I was surprised by how many things they do in art which has allowed me to learn even more!

Lori knows so many painting techniques and is able to effectively communicate and model these techniques as she instructs students. Additionally, she is very pleasant to listen to and to watch as she demonstrates techniques. She is honest yet patient, remembering your past successes and building on your skills. I had wanted to learn about painting with Pastels for some time and I was so happy to have found Lori and be able to take classes with her. Even though I’m not yet where I want to be as an artist, I have felt so creative, proud, and joyful while learning through Lori.
