Art classes is presented in Fourways area, Hartbeespoort and Claudius. I do not have a beginners or advance class because I work with each artist individually. I teach the student technique and develop the best style that suits each student.
I do believe that if you can't draw, you can't paint, therefore each new student does a couple of basic drawing exercises and can then decide which medium to choose or to specialize in. The student can draw amazing pictures within 4 to 5 lessons. Within 8 weeks the student can present a painting or drawing to be framed.
The students choose their own subject matter with the Tutor's assistance and guidance.
I also believe that art is a technique and not a talent, therefore anybody is welcome to join the classes. Young and old, talented or not.
