If you’re new to painting and don’t know where to start, Canvas Academy is 100% for YOU! I’ve made so many paintings for my walls, my friends, and family members with the classes. AND I’m finally comfortable using all the paint bottles that I’ve had sitting on the shelf for the last 6 months. Can’t recommend these classes enough!

I love Canvas Academy because it lets me learn on my own pace. I would have never been able to paint a stick figure, let alone a bowl of fruit, without it. Thank you for offering these classes in a time when we need art more than anything.
