I have had the opportunity to study with the instructors at Artbin in 2010~2012 and have learned…read morefar more than expected. I improved my art, design, and presentation skills dramatically. The instructors were knowledgeable about different realms of design, such as graphic, product, transportation design, and architecture, etc. Of course, on top of general art fundamentals. Class schedules and structures are flexible, which is great. However, you need to arm yourself with commitment and dedication to better your skill and complete your portfolio at the same time. There are so many places where the teachers end up doing everything for the students, but it would not be the case for Artbin. I highly recommend Artbin. It is a fantastic design preparatory studio if you are looking for a place to develop a quality academic portfolio of your own.

I started going to Spotcolor to prepare a portfolio to transfer colleges. I wasn't sure what to…read moreexpect and since I was attending UCI at the time, I had to juggle attending class while going to Spotcolor multiple times a week. Even though it was a hectic schedule, Soo Kim catered to my needs as much as possible. He made the application process much more feasible and smoother. Not only did I complete my portfolio successfully and get accepted to USC, I also improved my fundamental skills of drawing and painting and increased my overall understanding of art. I would definitely recommend Spotcolor to whoever wants to increase their creative skills and/or achieve specific academic goals.

I stopped by Summer Studios Arts Academy because the signs outside made it seem welcoming and…read moreencouraged people to get involved. Instead, I stood there for 10-15 minutes while people kept working and no one even acknowledged me or asked if I needed help. It honestly felt like they only want to interact with you if you're already enrolled in a class. If the studio is only open to students, just say so instead of putting out signs that make it seem open to the public. Sarcastically, I joked to myself that if I looked like a drug dealer, someone probably would have run to the door. Instead, I was just ignored. Very disappointing experience and a waste of time.

We had a great experience with Sketchbook Art Studio for my daughter's college portfolio…read morepreparation. Ms. Wonju and instructors are extremely knowledgeable and genuinely committed to helping each student succeed. They provided thoughtful guidance and really understood how to bring out my daughter's strengths. The program is very well structured and professional, which was especially helpful since my daughter began her portfolio preparation a bit later than most. The school created a clear plan tailored to the specific requirements of each college she was applying to, particularly for design majors, not just traditional art majors. With their support, my daughter was accepted into most of her top choice schools this year and received scholarships from every school she got into. And it truly reflects the quality of the program. I have two daughters, and based on the experience we had with my older one, I've already enrolled my younger one, who is currently a freshman. I highly recommend this school to anyone interested in pursuing a major in art or design.

We have been sending our girls to Sketchbook for over 4 years and what really sets this art studio…read moreapart from others is the individualized guidance each student receives from their teachers. The other studios we have sent the girls in the past offer a more "cookie-cutter" approach from project concept to completion. The girls are allowed space to roam and explore with each project which is a far cry from their experiences in previous studios. We love how technique is emphasized along with learning how each media can alter the look, feel, and interpretation of an art piece. We cannot be happier with how our girls' have grown as artist through these years. We strongly recommend Sketchbook to anyone wanting to grow as artists!

My 4-year-old daughter absolutely loves WCAAD! She started with a one-hour class, then asked to…read morestay for 1.5 hours, and now she happily spends two hours there every week. That alone says how much she enjoys it. We've seen her confidence, creativity, and love for drawing grow so much since she started. The teachers are patient, encouraging, and truly know how to inspire young children while helping them develop real artistic skills. She looks forward to every class and is always so excited to show us the beautiful artwork she creates. It's amazing to see what she's able to do at just four years old. We're so grateful to have found WCAAD and highly recommend it to any family looking for a fun, nurturing, and inspiring art program for their children.
