The Adrian Zorzut School of Fine Art - Edmonton, Alberta

I’m glad I started taking Adrian’s classes!

As someone without formal art training, I was welcomed into Adrian’s school, shown the basics, and began my art projects. Adrian’s extensive knowledge of techniques, colours, and endless ideas on how to accomplish what you’re set on creating has been critical in my artistic development. After only a few months, my art experience (knowledge and ability) has grown exponentially.

If that isn’t enough reason to try The Adrian Zorzut School of Fine Art, the wonderful classmates make it even better. You can work alongside other amazing and capable artists; you can see and be inspired by colourful mountains, gorgeous florals, ancient statues that are given new life, birds that pop off the canvas, and so many other amazing ideas turned into beautiful art.

Why are you still here? Sign up for Adrian’s classes!

10/10 Highly Recommend. This is a phenomenal art school. Adrian is very skilled at providing structure and direction while also allowing for freedom and flexibility. I’m amazed by what I can create with his guidance, and yet it feels like I’m doing it on my own. The people at the school are great- it’s a wonderful culture. Friendly and supportive. Room for connection when desired or room to be an introvert and do your own thing. A perfect space to grow as an artist for any level of experience. Reasonable rates and pay as you go. Very grateful for Adrian and this school, I’m glad I gave it a try.

I first heard of the school from my friend Nancy who paints there all the time, as well as, another friend who had recently joined the Tuesday night class. So, I started following their Instagram and saw a painting of Icelandic Poppies that Adrian, the owner, had just completed. I was immediately in love with it and reached out to see if it was for sale. After a wonderful conversation with Adrian and a few days later, the painting was on my wall.

I was struggling with my paintings. Adrian’s class’s have been exactly what I needed to push through to get the vision that was in my head down on canvas. He is an excellent teacher who challenges you, but also guides you through the challenges to creating something that you are proud of. The inspiration and interaction with others in the class has also been fun and helpful.
The class is for beginners (me), but also more advanced artists who want to grow in their craft.

I just wanted to share my experience with the Adrian Zorzut School of Fine Art. It's an amazing art school! Even though I had never picked up a paintbrush before, Adrian, the instructor, helped me create a great piece of art. He's a passionate and awesome teacher who ensures success for his students, and his artistic vision is truly inspiring. Adrian is patient and takes the necessary time to help his students understand technique, even when they are at different levels. I really appreciate the one-on-one attention I received. The location is also very convenient, and the students are welcoming, fun, and supportive. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced painter, I highly recommend the Adrian Zorzut School of Fine Art.

I have a very talented friend that creates here, who inspired me to try oil painting. I am just beginning and wanted to start somewhere so I took a northern lights workshop and it was such a great experience. Adrian was an amazing and patient teacher, I am so excited to learn and create more in the classes. Everyone in there was so beyond friendly and the demographic was diverse and I felt very comfortable. The workshop would be an amazing date or bonding experience or gift i’ll keep in mind for future. Inspiring place, so glad I tried it!

Five stars from everyone…

His starting exercise painting of grapes builds one’s experience, with a monotone underpainting followed by colour work. Oil is his primary medium, but I work with acrylic, which was more than acceptable.

I then moved on to a free painting of clouds with a dog form. Now on to more.

There are some very good painters that attend, but he is kind and gentle working with novices and helps them build and advance their skills…

I have always wanted to take an art class, and as soon as I retired, I finally had time to do this. I received a wonderful birthday gift, a gift certificate for classes at The Adrian Zorzut School of Fine Art. From the moment I walked into the studio I felt welcomed and comfortable. I was a little nervous learning some sketching and basic art skills, but Adrian's easy nature and patience put me right at ease. I have now completed my first oil painting, and I'm very proud of it and looking forward to choosing my next project. I have a lot to learn, but Adrian is an amazing teacher, I can't wait to work on my next project.

I have met some wonderful fellow artists at the studio, and enjoy
their company and encouragement. If you have ever wanted to try art classes, I highly recommend this art school.
