Our daughter E has been in love with art since the age of 2. I've always loved to watch her use…read moreher imagination and creativity to come up with complex and deep pieces of art. We have signed her up for different art class/ studio lessons but they all seemed to fit into more of a "follow what we are showing you to do" type lesson. I saw E treat this art like work compared to something she was passionate about. After doing some solid research we found Heart4Art and have been SOo soo pleased with Sharon and the studio. Sharon lets the children decide what they'd like to do and in a very supportive and positive way, she'll guide them on techniques they may want to try. We feel very blessed to have found Heart4Art.

Your location is the best, combining both a retreat and a place that is stimulating in many ways. Visually the location is stunning and the views are worth every penny of a million dollar treasure.

My daughter has been taking classes at The Arterie since the beginning of the school year. I can't…read moretell you how much she loves it! She loves going in, getting her things together and starting to make something. She loves that she has freedom to express and create... with some guidance and feedback but also enough room for her work to be HER work vs a cookie cutter composition that looks exactly like some other artist. She gets to see and play with art the way she wants to, AND I love bringing pieces home and hanging them on the wall. (Talk about a self-esteem booster for her!) I love that Cara and her team bring real art concepts to the kids in a way that they understand and relate to. I highly recommend The Arterie to anyone who is looking to support their child's artistic expression. It's sooooo important... And as an artist myself, I just love creating a love for arts with kids without judgement or assessment.

They all are bursting with exuberance and truly wanted to make the experience an enjoyable one! It is definitely a joyful experience with good vibes, positivity and encouragement. I will definitely recommend it to others, and I will be back!

Daniel is continuously taking her outside of her artistic comfort zone to expand her talents, which can be seen in her art work. Daniel is always eager to explain, assist and guide the artist when needed. My daughter is experiencing studio art at the highest level with talented and dedicated art teachers and true professionals. Raminfard School of Arts is a gem of Agoura!

Bob Noonan is a phenomenal art instructor, who has amazing knowledge, talent, patience, and great personality, that makes learning easy & fun!

Concepts like rhythm, gesture, proportion, and anatomy to design the figure drawing are demonstrated. And, his book, See, Feel, Trace, Draw It & Anatomy, is the perfect companion.

It's a complete curriculum, with illustrated concepts that mirror the teaching from class with expanded views of each of the lessons, and examples for further study. But, if you do take the class, you'll appreciate his humor, and love of drawing that inspires his students to draw, draw, draw.
