Instructed Open Studio & Portfolio Development

This Studio Art class is open to various forms of expression, which may include a master copy, family portrait, or any project of personal interest. Students work on individual projects, while receiving the instructor’s guidance.

Portfolio Development for Teens:

This session is for serious young artists aiming to create competitive portfolios for art-school and college admissions and scholarships. Over the years our students have garnered many thousands of dollars in scholarships for the quality of their artwork.  Our students have recently gained admittance into top art programs such as Ringling College of Art & Design, RISD, Pratt, FIT, SVA, and Hartford Art School, as well as graduate level programs such as New York Academy of Art and Johns Hopkins Medical Illustration program.  Students work one-on-one with the instructor, following a specific course of action designed to meet the student’s portfolio needs, skill level, and time constraints.  Students may work on drawing, painting, or digital art.

• Teens interested in art as a hobby are also welcome!  You don’t have to be pursuing a career in art to learn with us.  We will help you cultivate your skills to the next level!
• PORTFOLIO CONSULTATIONS may available upon request and are recommended for serious students who are preparing for upcoming applications, and for families who need guidance clarifying their student’s direction and next steps. $60 for a one-hour private meeting and a customized checklist of portfolio projects, if needed.  Email or call us to discuss this option.
