(waitlist) Mini-Group Art Tutor:
Drawing/Painting Adults/Kids

1 hour 30 minutes

The new mini-group is formed once there is a certain amount of students with close levels and ages (kids/youth/adults) contact me with their inquiries. Usually, we start private painting sessions and change them to groups once they form. The prepaid hours and class packs are transferable with my approval.

I currently have openings in the following groups:
ADULTS: Weekday at 6:00 PM - Adult Beginner Painting (small group up to 4 students)
Please, check my Urban Sketching Group Lessons and Figure Drawing Group Course for adults.

KIDS: Wednesdays at 4:00 PM - Mixed-media for kids aged 5-8: Experimental Art (small group up to 4 students)
Please, check the Kids Art Lessons folder for the kids' private and more group programs I teach.

You’re welcome to organize a private group (2+ students, mixed age) with your friends or relatives for a special rate! My studio can fit up to 6 students. For groups of 6+ students, I may travel to Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster, Coquitlam, and North Vancouver.

For the price you pay, you get the full volume of my 20+ years of visual art experience. I can easily adapt to your gaps and interests.
