The Artistic Brush

The Artistic Brush is a creative art course designated for future artists in middle & high school interested in learning how to become more proficient in painting using acrylic paint and brushes as a form of art medium. Our class environment is designed as a fun and creative workspace. Students will be able to work on their painting at their own pace, and receive individualized attention, inspiration, and instruction. We encourage our students to express themselves and pursue their artistic passion through their paintings. Our student artists will create, present, respond, and connect with classmates with like-minded interests while exploring their true potential. Under the guidance of The Artistic Bruch instructor, students will not only be challenged to explore and appreciate a variety of subject matters with paintings, but will also acquire a variety of painting techniques.
