Sketch only (For level 2 & 3)
Sketching is a very fundamental class that is important to all students who are getting more serious in arts. We hone in on observation skills and patience, and fine tune the control of using a pencil.
The intention of this class is not to have a "pretty, completed artwork" , but is more about practicing and training students to be able to realistically draw / sketch objects on their own.
Students are recommended to bring a sketchbook (about 9" x 12") and shading pencils. We also provide loose sheets of paper.

Learn how to blend colours, make textures and control the consistency and ways of using the brush or other tools to paint. This class is recommended to students who had some experiences in our general leveled classes.
We provide watercolour paper, and $5 cash for a canvas upgrade. You can also bring your own canvas if it is about 11x14" size.
1 Teacher to 7 students
Interested in art program in high schools? Usually they require 3 - 6 pieces of artwork (includes sketching, painting & sculpture ) and a test on your life drawing skills. We can provide training and consultation to better prepare you in the audition and develop a portfolio that best represent yourself.
We recommend students to start the preparation as early as the second semester of Grade 7 as the audition usually starts in January. That would give us around 1 year's time. Feel free to email us with the recent artworks and we can provide more details on a suggested timeline that is best for you.
What we provide:
- Brainstorm ideas for projects that would stand out
- Help develop quality sketchbook with drawing & painting exercises
- Gestural drawing training
- Learn compositions and shading techniques
Teacher has honours bachelor degree of design with 10+yrs of experience.
This class cannot guarantee you can admit to the art program but it is always a great learning experience in this preparation process. Think of it as a boot camp of art that you can expect to see great development of skills within a year.
