Students' reviews:

V S.

My daughter is currently attending Art School of SF Bay, and we've had a great experience. She absolutely loves going to art class every week--it's truly one of the highlights of her schedule. She's always enjoyed drawing, but under Katya's guidance, she's been learning so much and growing in both skill and confidence.  This is her second semester, and although we've had to miss several classes for various reasons, the school has been incredibly accommodating. They always respond promptly to our makeup requests and help us stay caught up, which we really appreciate.  The instruction is high-quality, and the studio is run with a level of professionalism that gives me confidence as a parent. We're so glad to be part of it!

Watercolor art camp with teacher Katya was so much fun! My daughter had a blast exploring different art techniques and the watercolors they created at the camp were just fantastic. She even used what she learned at the camp to create watercolor Valentine's Day cards for her classmates!

Teacher Katya's passion for art really shines through, and her guidance made each lesson super fun.  

My child has already asked me to sign her up for the summer camps at the art school.

Katya is extremely knowledgeable and was super helpful, warm, engaging, and conscientious. I learned so many painting insights from her in such a short time!
