I was a true beginner and now feel much more confident and have taken drawing classes using charcoal, graphite, and pastels. I really enjoyed the painting class and learned a lot more about drawing and painting abstract, landscapes, and portraits. Learning all of these techniques from Jim Sparks, an accomplished artist and college level teacher has been an invaluable adventure. He works with all levels, classes are creatively interesting and very entertaining. His constructive criticism is spot on and completely helpful and provides much needed insight. Never did I feel uncomfortable, intimidated, or inferior to pick up a pencil during any of these classes. I would highly recommend this class if you have any interest in art and drawing. Even if you think you can't draw, guess again, Jim's classes will help develop you into a better artist and definitely inspire you to improve. So sign up!

Amazing place. Amazing location…read more Amazing staff. I brought my two daughters and niece (ages 5 to 11) and they had something for everyone. Saule was incredibly helpful and nice! When my 5 yo acted up, she was super calm and understanding. She even helped us perfect her piece. Saule also expedited all the pieces for us because we live out of the area and were leaving in a couple of days. If I lived in the area I'd want a membership or discount because I'd be back and there's an $8 painter's fee (which adds up!). HIGHLY recommend!!!!

This is definitely the smallest board and brush I have been to. I came on a busy night, it was a…read moreteacher special so you got a free small board to do. 6 people were at my table which wasn't very big. The main board you get is usually very big so we were bumping into each other a lot. Then when it came to drying there was only a small space where a fan could fit and all the boards crammed there (aka, mine didn't dry much). Basically this location is really small which makes it really loud! This doesn't have to do with this location but the company chooses way too small of fonts and images sometimes that it's basically impossible to peel. Then the blue adhesive side doesn't stick well to the stained wood. Therefore, my paint work always looks messy. I heard If you do like a white wash over the stain it sticks better? But I don't always like the look of it. They need to have thicker lettering and stronger adhesive! Still it's a fun activity to do with friends!
