Academy's Philosophy
Art Studio Academy offers an environment that is as unique as each student.  Regardless of skill level, we seek to discover each student’s talent while nurturing his or her progress in art classes. As students progress, we introduce more mediums and principals. At the art school, class is always an enjoyable experience that gives students an opportunity to express themselves, learn something exciting, and create an original piece they can take pride in while bonding with friends.

We help students explore and develop their interest in painting, drawing, sculpture, animation, character design, architecture, graphic design, illustration, and more. Additionally, we give students a chance to benefit from collaboration. Mona Lisa may have been painted by one artist, but the Statue of Liberty required many hands, heads, and hearts.
