LEARN ART WITH A PROFESSIONAL ARTIST

ABOUT THE ART CLASSES

Professional Art iNSTRUCTION

These classes are designed for children and teenagers who want to learn and develop their artistic skills. Students learn drawing and painting techniques, observation, proportions, light and shadow, cast shadows, perspective, color theory, composition and other fundamental art principles. We also work with different subjects, including portraits, animals, objects, landscapes and more. You can read more about me, my background and experience as an art teacher on the Home Page aleksandra-strokina.no.

INDIVIDUAL LEARNING IN A SMALL GROUP

My art classes combine the individual approach of private art lessons with the experience of learning in a small group. There is no single program or project that every student has to follow.

All classes are mixed-age groups for children aged 7+. Students are not expected to work at the same level or complete the same projects simply because they are in the same class. Each child receives guidance appropriate to their age, experience and individual learning needs. I listen to what each child wants to learn and adapt the lessons to their interests, goals and current skill level.

A student who wants to learn landscape painting can focus on color mixing, composition, perspective, light and shadow, and painting techniques. Another student may be interested in drawing and sketching and can develop those skills without being required to paint with acrylics.

Some students already have a clear artistic interest, while others want to explore. They can try different materials, subjects and techniques to discover what they enjoy and what direction they would like to develop further.

This means students of different ages can comfortably learn alongside one another while working on their own individual goals and projects.

Small Groups – MAXIMUM 4 STUDENTS

There are a maximum of four students in each class. I keep my groups small because I focus on the quality of teaching and individual attention. This allows me to work with each student individually, explain techniques, demonstrate, answer questions and follow their progress throughout the lesson.

For me, the quality of the learning experience is more important than the number of students in the classroom.

Flexible booking. how it works

My booking system is designed to give families more flexibility around holidays, travel and other activities, without having to commit to and pay for a full semester in advance. And many parents appreciate this flexibility.

I update the website every week with new upcoming Wednesday and Saturday classes. You can simply choose the dates that work for you and book only the classes your child can attend. If you have other plans, there is no need to book that particular week.

Single drop-in classes can be booked individually through the website. This works well if you prefer a flexible schedule, want to attend occasionally, or would like to choose your dates week by week.

If your child would like to attend regularly, you can also reserve places in advance for an agreed period after a trial art lesson, subject to availability. It can be a specific date, a few weeks, a month, a semester, or another agreed period. Simply contact me by email with the dates you would like to reserve, and I will send you an invoice. To keep classes accessible and flexible, up to two places in each class can be reserved in advance for regular students, while the remaining two places stay available for individual drop-in bookings.

This gives families the choice between flexible individual bookings and regular attendance with places reserved in advance.
