Every instructor is an experienced professional. Each instructor teaches drawing and painting in all mediums, to everyone, from the absolute beginner up to the advanced student. Students select the class-time that best suits their schedule, and their favorite medium. Oils, pastels, drawing, or even a different medium each day, it's up to the student. Classes are small and each student is taught individually within the group environment. Instructors spend time with each student, demonstrating, and explaining the principles particular to the specific types of art materials.
