Description
Our Studio-based adult art classes are the foundation of Melbourne Art Class. In these classes you have the freedom to work on your own projects, or our Still Life display with guidance from an experienced teacher and professional artist. During the term, we sometimes have mini-lectures on a particular art movement, genre or technique. We welcome all skill levels, from complete beginners, to experienced artists who need a space and dedicated time to create.
The program is a studio-based class that mixes personalised tuition with a program of short presentations. A wide range of mediums are available, including drawing and painting in both oils and acrylics. It would be suitable for anyone who is interested in a class that develops observational skills and fundamental artistic skills while maintaining a degree of flexibility for creativity.
We welcome all skill levels in this class – from complete beginners, or focused artists pursuing a project. For beginners, teachers will initially use a more structured approach that covers the fundamentals of drawing and painting.
The program is based on a school term and is open to students from secondary school age onwards.
You can see artwork produced by students of our Studio-based adult art classes in previous years here.
