Reviews for Beginner Painting Classes in Los Angeles

Beginner Painting Classes in Los Angeles are rated 4.6 stars based on 156 verified reviews from actual CourseHorse.com purchasers.

  • The Instructor, Izzy, broke down sketching and painting techniques into simple to understand steps that were also easy to execute. Izzy spent a lot of time with each student providing feedback and suggestions. I was amazed at what I was able to produce in just a couple of classes. When asked by friends and family to see my finished pieces I was happy to show them off.
  • Wonderful class! Met so many nice people :)
  • I took the watercolor class with Israel and I have only positive things to say. He was a great instructor and made sure we all had a great experience. The pace was really great for a beginner like me. I would totally recommend.
  • The kids loved it and it brought the kid out of us parents too. I highly recommend it to anyone. Simply fantastic.
  • Great course! Great instructor! A very fun experience learning to paint like a master!
  • We had a great time. Our teacher was patient and helpful. I have very little artistic talents and it was fun to see what I could do with proper instruction.
  • Excellent course! The space is awesome and the studio provides everything you need. We had a great teacher and the painting was fun and relaxing to complete.
  • I enjoyed this class. It was so relaxing to just sit and paint!
  • Israel is a great teacher. He is very diplomatic, and I like that he teaches the basics and doesn't give too much information to beginners, so they don't get too confused. I have learned a lot from this class as well as his Urban Sketching class. I will definitely continue taking classes taught by him.
  • Nan Rae is very experienced and informative in her teaching. It was a fun class. Really awesome studio space and kind people in the class. Nan Rae was very helpful and her passion for painting is obvious. Great experience all around.
  • I love taking this water color class. Israel is the best teacher. He's patient, encouraging. This was the second class I've taken with him and will take more in the months to come.
  • It was a wonderful class
  • It went by so fast but worked out well and my painting was awesome
  • I actually signed up for the class back in June and it was a great way to spend 2 hours on a Wednesday morning. Only myself and another student were present at the class and the teacher was great. The only reason I haven’t returned is because 10am on Wednesdays is an unpredictable time in my week, and I live 25+ minutes away. However, I purchased some of my favorite art supplies at the store it’s hosted within, so I’m grateful for that as well.
  • What a great class and a wonderful teacher. 10/10 recommend!
  • The class was amazing! The instructor was funny, happy, and super nice. I went with my sisters and we're definitely going back soon.
  • Beginning Oil Paint NOW ONLINE Instructed Open Studio

    the instructor explained stuff that i didn' t understand this helped me alot.
  • Excellent teacher and a challenging painting that she led us through so well. Really interesting and I learned a lot. Thanks, Angie. How do I send you a photo of my painting?
  • Wonderful time!!
  • FANTASTIC!! I was surprised to be the only student. I was even more surprised the instructor was willing to continue with the class. What it ended up doing was give me, selfishly, personalized instruction. It also gave me the opportunity to switch up the colors of the project. What a fun way to spend a Saturday evening. I will definitely be taking more virtual paint classes from Brushstrokes + Beverages!!
  • I really enjoyed this class. The instructor was very knowledgeable and helpful. All of the information was to understand and follow, and the finished painting was beautiful!
  • The class was fun and upbeat. I would definitely join this class again in the future.
  • Portrait Painting - NOW ONLINE Instructed Open Studio

    Great!!
  • Portrait Painting - NOW ONLINE Instructed Open Studio

    It was great online art class. I didn't have any learning experience online. I was nervous before the class. But the instructor organized the class so well and gave advice each students. I almost felt like being in class room. I've learned some techniques I never done. I will continue to take this class!
  • Great experience! Our teacher was amazing and made the us feel like we were real painters! We will be doing this again
  • It was great! The instructor was awesome
  • Teacher is very knowledgeable. 4 weeks is too short of a class and I will definitely try and take it again when class is 6 weeks long. You can take this class over and over and still learn something new
  • Snowman Smile

    Lots of fun and instructor was great!
  • Everything was very nice.
  • Made my First attempt for printmaking. Our instructor (George) was excellent and very informative. We learned quiet a bit about the process.
  • The class only had 3 people so Rea gave us all a lot if individual attention. As a watercolor newbie I needed and got a lot of suggestions as to how to work on my waiting of leaves. Rea is very patient, taught us a number of important watercolor concepts, and I left the class very inspired and interested in taking more watercolor classes to develop my skills.
  • Marianne was an amazing instructor, truly inspiring. The environment was welcoming, engaging, and fully encouraging of personal creativity. Not to mention, you are free to enjoy the LACMA for the day with your course entry. I can’t wait to take this course again!!
  • Nan Rae has such a fun attitude, and loose teaching style. It was fun learning more about brush strokes with her.
  • Great class with Victoria! Fun for women of all ages and a great art environment. Highly recommend
  • Marianne was a fantastic teacher. Very knowledgeable, helpful and motivating. Looking forward to taking another of her courses!
  • Excellent class for me! I’m a newbie in creativity, but the other participants were all levels and the class ran smoothly for all! Kathy’s great! Giving personal attention to each of us. A lovely calm peaceful location to help us all relax and enjoy the day together! I enjoyed it so much I’ve signed up for her retreat later this year! Thanks Kathy!!
  • Nan is a great instructor. She started out the class with a quick 10 minute demonstration and the rest of the time was working on your own with her dropping by to give pointers. There are lots of regular students and they were friendly and happy to give advice as well. Apparently, each session is devoted to a different flower, so I'll definitely be back to learn some more.
  • Really cute and fun class! There was a brief intro and then you were left to your own devices which I enjoyed.
  • Loved the creative night! Helpful instructors and chill vibe :) Great way to spend your Saturday night!
  • One of the better teachers in this series. Highly recommend!
  • It was a perfect setting, great organizer and fantastic model. Forgot to mention - nice people and good music.
  • It was a great Creative Night! Gabby and Kiana were really helpful with ideas and showing us their amazing skills. I had a lot of fun, especially with all the encouragement going on (cos I can’t paint) lol.
  • We had a great night! We definitely will come back!
  • A great investment to work on your weaknesses or if you are new to drawing and painting. KL is very knowledgable and you get individual instruction and attention. The class is very clean and well lit (no fluorescent lighting!) I will return.
  • Very comfortable environment to be able to paint in public, awesome experience
  • Super awesome experience. Mike was very helpful. It’s my first time doing painting, but it was very chill and fun. The background music was really good and helped the painting atmosphere as well.
  • They're so loud you can barely hear what the artist is instructing you to do. They're fun.. I'll definitely become a regular just have to sit in the front.
  • Absolutely loved the class and teacher. It’s wasnt very floral, we painted maple leaves and pumpkins for the season. I learned so much, definitely signing up again with Nan Rae.
  • Lovely teacher, very low key and non judgmental of our initial artistic efforts. Learned a lot, and had fun.
  • Character Design I

    Amazing class!
