This art school is simply wonderful from the talented, amazing, endlessly patient and kind teacher , Rama, to the stunning, beautiful art that gets created by young and old. My son LOVES to go every week. It’s the only activity he never wants to skip. And I know this is due as much to the paintings/drawings he gets to create, as it is to the caring, attentive and fun atmosphere that Rama creates. We already have a full wall with his paintings at home that I adore and he is proud of. I couldn’t recommend this center more!

Exceptional! Very talented teacher, she knows exactly how to explain and everything seems so easy under her guidance. It’s my first time attending painting classes and Rama makes it so pleasant and welcoming. I would never thought i am a good candidate but it seems with the right teacher absolutely everyone is a good candidate. It’s the best decision i have taken choosing her studio . Highly recommended

If anyone is thinking about starting to learn art or improve their skills, this is the place to be.

I started coming to Rama’s classes at the age of 10. 8 years later, my home is filled with the paintings I have created over the years. Beyond these pieces, however, Rama has taught me a lifelong lesson about the importance of creativity, appreciating details, and looking at life in a beautiful, compassionate way. Rama has completely changed my life and shaped me to who I am today. She also helped me get into my dream school. I am beyond grateful for everything she has done for me and my family. Even though I will be going to college next year, I will apply the artistic and life skills I have learned from Rama to the rest of my future.

Rama is a remarkable artist and teacher. I so appreciate her love of the craft and how she infused her passion into my kids. She has a strategic approach to teaching kids the fundamentals while keeping them excited, engaged and inspired by art. My boys couldn't wait for each lesson! They learned so much and continue to be inspired by art because of the creativity, love and joy they experienced while learning from Rama!

Rama is an incredible art teacher and just an exceptional individual altogether! She creates an wonderfully creative space where all the students are able to learn from her and each other in order to develop fine art techniques. Rama's studio is a place where you can relax and learn create beauty with your paintbrush. Coming to her studio classes is really something I have cherished!

Rama is amazing! I came to her a few years ago, as a prospective architecture student. I had to make a portfolio and I was clueless about what to do! Rama the incredible woman she is helped me create the best portfolio I could make and thanks to her guidance I am in one of the best architecture schools in the country SCI-Arc!

I took my girlfriend here for a surprise birthday art session and Rama was a fantastic host and teacher!! She set up candles, balloons, gorgeous flowers, in addition to wine, appetizers and of course a wonderful painting session. Our paintings came out beautifully and I absolutely recommend booking time with her!

I have attended this place for over 10 years and I can say without a doubt that you will not find another art instructor as amazing as Rama. It doesn't matter whether you are a complete beginner or you are proficient at art, you will still learn a lot. She is one of the kindest person I have ever met growing up. I highly recommend anyone from a child to an elder to attend her classes.
