Why?
Because I've been in your shoes too.
For individuals passionate about art, it's not enough to just learn techniques and strokes.
In order to thrive, artists need mentors that know their personal art story and how to mold high quality art education to match the individual's hopes, goals and needs — not the other way around.

In 1997, I started a side hustle teaching a few art classes in the evenings.
In 2015, I made the jump to follow my passion and mentor art students full time.
In 2023, I re-designed my art school from the ground up to build a revolutionary new method unlike anything taught anywhere by anyone.
Hi. I'm Susie.
I've spent the last 20+ years building my career as a private art teacher. In the process I've worked with hundreds of students who have taken their art to a whole new level.
I've Always Known My Calling in Life is to Help People Understand That Anyone Can Become an Incredible Artist
I want YOU to find as much joy and excitement and confidence as I have found through expressing my creativity.

MEET AMY
Up until a year ago, Amy had never taken an art class before. She dabbled a little while watching YouTube videos, but it never really got her anywhere.
Now, she's found an art class that (in her words) "checks all the boxes." Between the community, the dedicated time for being creative and the amazing teachers, Amy can't believe how much she's grown as an artist.
Suzanne has wanted to be an artist her entire life but could not make it happen.
She came to the studio with "very low expectations for herself and WOW has she been shocked!" She now believes in herself and "has found a passion that is filling her soul."

MEET HADLEY
When Hadley was younger, she used drawing to help her manage her anxiety and ADD, but the classes she took didn't offer much of a challenge.
Now, as a young adult, Accomplished Artist Studio has been "more impactful than any other class" she's taken. She's "grown more confident" in herself and her artistic abilities.
Here, we care about the artist just as much as the art.
It's time to stop feeling...
Alone and unsupported
Like you're missing foundational skills to master your craft
A lack of direction and confidence
Instead, experience...
A human centered class community
A specially designed, flexible, grow-with-the-artist curriculum
Belonging in your identity as an artist and the joy that creativity brings to your life
Enjoy an art class that does it all.
Each two and a half hour Academy class is structured with a four-part process to maximize your time, effort, learning and goals.
