After years of experience being creative as a set designer and also spending years doing workshops in school settings, I decided to expand and offer these fun sessions for small groups and individual. My goal is to help students appreciate what they are doing with the right tool, technique and medium so they can be proud of the result and believe they can achieve something over their expectations. I love creating the best lesson that will excite other and find the best way or new ways to realize a masterpiece wihile trying new medium it is so much fun to learn what different product can do....

I'm really interested in catching the movement and feel of the subject drawn. Teaching my students the shapes that will help to build structures to convey what they are seeing or imagining. Also covering the effects of lighting and shadow to create depth and reality to the drawn image.

Alexandra N. says, "Had a blast! Anjl is very open, fun and supportive. Stan was the same. I haven't painted since high school art class. This reminded me how much I enjoy it and I surprised myself. Walking around and seeing everyone else's finished vision was eye opening. We all have creativity in us. Just have to allow it to come forth. Met some great people and laughed all night! Highly recommended!!" Read more

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

  • 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?
