Gargantuan Canvas Painting!!


For this workshop, kids drew, textured and painted bigger paintings than themselves!! The finished product was amazing and it was so fun to see how proud they were of what they made. Great to work huge once in awhile.











Variety Of Flowers


This is such a great workshop! I am only sorry I have only one photo to share! All were outstanding

Private Lessons


Private lessons are available by calling the studio and setting up a time to come in for one-on-one instruction. They can be especially helpful if you are wanting to do a large canvas project with multiple people, but are not limited to only this. We have done many privates which include, clay, mosaics, decopauge and more. Please call if interested in finding out more information. Here are some examples of what we have done:











Birdhouse and Planter Box Workshop


This planter box was made by one of the kid's at the studio. Jer comes in and teaches "building classes" every summer, and the planter box was one of them. The box shown is the rectangle box, perfect for a little vegetable garden.





This is the square design. Great for citrus trees or whatever you wish.




"Birdhouse workshop" (or should we say, bird mansion?)




Another beautiful finished project.

"Zootime" & "Join the Circus"


Kids came into the studio and painted clay animals. Then they made an environment for them to live in on the canvas. Some made zoos and some made them out in the wild. Both had wonderful results.





Out in the wild





And in the zoo





This same idea was done for making a circus. Like the zoo, these results were amazing!
