I attended 2 events at the Perkowitz Art studio in Grayslake with my husband. The first one was…read morerock painting that I have been doing for several years as I am a member of Grayslake Rocks. My husband surprised me when he said he wanted to attend & we both enjoyed the event immensely. The second event was in October to paint the Scary House. I had registered to attend with my good friend but due to unforseen circumstances she had to cancel at the last minute. My husband offered to accompany me as I had already registered & paid. We both were amazed this was not just painting a picture of a house, it was an art class taught by Tom Perkowitz. It was truly a memorable experience & who knew ? A Saturday afternoon date for this married couple who are polar opposites in many ways, accidentally discovering they had found a hobby that appealed to both of them & should pursue future events of this type. I bought paint by number sets for us & am hoping that more of this classes will be offered at the studio or may just create a paint party of my own with friends if there are no events coming up. I rate this a 5 & highly recommend this place to one & all.

We always get great instruction, supplies and time to complete our project. Myself and children have always been thrilled with the product we come home with and are anxious to go back to paint more.

I've recently started to incorporate a craft into all of my gatherings.

As I said, it was a bit of a fail, but the laughs were unmatched! Join the rewards program, I'm always getting coupons, which helps. I'm not a fan of the self-checkout stations and one of the machines was down.

Kathyrn has a keen eye and she always selects the perfect frame, mat, etc. I trust her judgement 100% and I rarely find someone whose judgement I trust that completely. Art Store Gallery has an extensive selection of quality frames and the service is top notch. They do archival quality work. While Kathryn selects a few frames that would go well with my piece, whether it be a photograph, painting, sketch, etc., her first choice is always what I end up selecting because she has the best taste. The prices are competitive and I have never been disappointed in the final product. You can entrust them to take good care of your artwork.

While there were multiple photos in each frame, this cost is WAY out of line. When I complained, they admitted they should have called me, but did nothing to adjust their ridiculous price. These were one of a kind family photos, and they knew they had me. BUYER BEWARE! The quality of the work was nothing special. With so many other choices for framing in the Mundelein area you would think they would care about losing a customer, and buying bad advertising. Shame on me for not getting an iron clad written quote, but I trusted them. This education was expensive.
