What Our Students Say

I have a student in the Art Studio for more than 7 years. It is a unique haven to learn from outstanding instructors who enjoy the artistic process and from fellow artists whom I enjoy relationships that have been formed over time. We inspire and motivate one another together. This is an uninterrupted focused time that I set aside weekly to spend together. The bonus is making priceless memories and artwork to share with friends and family. I have also learned to value the process. Sometimes I do not finish a painting, but I have learned and gained understanding.

Heidi

I love working at the Art Studio. Denise is attentive and helpful giving feedback. I am always pleased with my finished product after Denise’s helps Oh! And I enjoy the various workshops too.
The studio is spacious, organized, well equipped; tables to work, easels to hold your canvas, drawing pad, etc., lightening is good.

I just love being there. Everyone is pleasant and fun!

Selma M

I decided to take up some art classes and take my daughter with me since she’s 14 and is at the stage where she’s exploring her art talent and this was a perfect place to take her, the instructor was very helpful and really took the time to show her the techniques and the skills she needed to start working. I highly recommend this place.

Ramon S

I looked long and hard for an art studio for my daughter who is hoping to be accomplished at oil painting. As soon as she walked into the studio she felt at home. The instructors are friendly and the quality of work being produced here is top notch.

Georgia P

My daughter loves the Art Studio summer camps, and she’s been there three years and it’s the only camp she will go to.
