“I had such a wonderful time in this class! I had never done oil painting before this and I am so proud of what I made. The instructor was great and super helpful! Would definitely take this class again.”
“Wonderful class, our teacher was so helpful and friendly, would definitely come back for more classes. I was surprised at what I was able to complete in just 3 hours! Truly a credit to Elena’s skills as a painter and teacher”
“My favorite painting I've ever done - I love looking at it! Elena is very kind, helpful, and talented. She taught me the importance of certain lines for detail and perspective, to paint objects closer to the foreground thicker, and how different objects should have different textures. Elena would help me paint when I felt stuck or overwhelmed. I had access to plenty of paints, ample brushes and palette knives, and the choice between painting on paper vs canvas. I'll definitely be back”
“I really enjoyed the oil painting class! Although I didn't have much prior experience with the technique, I managed to paint something I was very happy with. This is thanks to Elena! Elena let us choose the reference picture we wanted to paint from, and provided great advice all along the class to get to a successful painting. I was surprised with what each student could achieve in only 3 hours!”
“Elena was a great instructor for myself and my partner during our first oil painting experience. Elena’s was excellent in her approach, she had a great balance of guidance while letting us take ownership of our art. Before the class we were not sure if we’d be able to paint something we’d like but we left extremely happy with the result of our pieces. We also feel we have a great basic foundation to grow from. We would love to take another class with Elena!”
