We offer a traditional program of drawing and painting classes for students of all levels: beginners through professionals. Our courses can help professionals to solidify their traditional skills; many of our students are professionals in the fields of video game art, illustration, graphic design, and tattoo artistry. Beginners can also excel in our art classes, as they learn good drawing habits from the start.
Our program is based on the academic tradition. We begin with drawing methods that teach students to draw accurately from observation and achieve a realistic effect in their work. Once students have mastered the fundamentals of drawing, they have several options: drawing from the live model, painting in oil, artistic anatomy, or continued study of historical techniques of drawing or painting.
New students begin with Cast Drawing; returning students may choose from other Atelier courses in drawing, painting, and anatomical drawing.
Our skilled instructors welcome students of all levels in a small-group setting. New students are welcome to begin anytime throughout the year.
