Some of you may already know HeART Studio since there are many good reviews of it. I've also jumped on the HeART Studio bandwagon and signed Princess up for the art classes there after a trial lesson as she thoroughly enjoyed it and I felt her instructor did a great job of teaching her painting techniques using very simple and child-friendly terms. For example, she explained that the way to pick up paint from the palette was to let the paintbrush "bunny hop" on the paint instead of scooping it up with the paintbrush.
Here's a glimpse of what she recently learnt in her Little Picasso lessons (for age 5-6 years).

Second artwork with paint and oil pastels:
Third artwork (with added details) with paint and oil pastels:
Although this artwork is uncompleted, you can see that
it has progressed to one with more realistic details.

As you can see, each lesson is progressive and the child gets to complete the artwork by herself (proudly, if I may add) with just enough guidance from the instructor. Rest assured this is not the copy-the-drawing-on-the-board type of art lessons.
For the upcoming June holidays, HeART Studio is organising a Safari Camp! During the programme, children will learn how to draw forms using shapes and lines, at the same time they are taught using the techniques of painting, mixing of colours and colour harmony and contrast. This painting programme will open a window of experience for the student to try out canvas painting to the many different interesting subject matters that have been chosen for the class.
Details of the camp:
