This art school is a true gem. Every Wednesday, I attend the life drawing sessions and they are the highlight of my week. The atmosphere is welcoming, the conversations are inspiring, and the talent here is incredible. The founder is not only a gifted artist but also a passionate and patient teacher who knows how to bring out the best in his students. The other instructors are equally fantastic, creating a nurturing environment for both kids and adults to learn and grow. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore or deepen their artistic journey. I plan to enroll my kid in the summer camp at this school. I'm sure she'll like it here
