PAINTING CLASSES in Toronto
Painting is our most popular visual art class. We take a special approach to teaching, showing our students how painting provides an ideal opportunity for self-expression. We avoid “cookie-cutter” approaches because we believe that painting should allow students to showcase their unique talents and abilities. Therefore, we make sure to prioritize individual learning styles and creativity in our classes. Although we equip our students with specific techniques to develop phenomenal paintings, we do not expect them to sacrifice their creativity in any way.
