Are you ready to make a splash? Let's go explore the underwater world and discover fascinating stories about fish! We will take inspiration from famous oil painters and experiment with different brushstrokes to develop your unique and expressive art styles. Let's dive right in!


During our 9 sessions, depending on the day of your lesson, you will create 3 to 4 paintings that take you to the next level of creative thinking. Learn new brush techniques, how to set up a workspace that makes you- the artist, more effective, and most of all, how to convey your inspirational ideas to pieces that bring joy to your audience.


This weekly workshop lasts 120 minutes and is designed for beginner, intermediate, and advanced artists between the ages of 8 and 16. Each session will introduce an artist and their artwork, providing an opportunity for students to learn about art history and literacy. By the end of the course, students are expected to complete 3 to 4 oil paintings, depending on their age, skill level, and attendance. Parents do not need to accompany their children at this level; all course materials are included for enrolled students. Please bring your own painting set, and if you are new, you can order a starter pack from ajstudio.store.

Frequently asked questions
1 What happens if I miss a class?
If you feel sick, please stay home and apply a catch-up lesson at a later time. Or, if you feel well enough, please join your session online via our app or this website. Regrettably, we can only provide catch-up lessons within your enrolled term based on availability. Any unused credit cannot be carried over to the following term.
2 What's your refund policy in a nutshell?
For the fairness of the other students, for our clever tutors who provide the lessons that you love, the studio cannot offer a refund if you change your mind. Our in-studio workshops are strictly made up of the limited number of students enrolled before the start of each school term and have the appropriate resources allocated to accommodate the optimal learning experience for all students in the course. To ensure the staff and supplies can be maintained for the course, payment for their use cannot be refunded so that the remaining students may continue the learning and development they paid for. In the event of Covid-19 restrictions, workshops will resume online. No refund can be issued if you decide not to participate in online sessions.
3 What do I need to bring to class?
If you are joining the workshop in person, just bring your lovely self! Please bring your own art pack for Clever Canvas™, Sketchbook Challenge™ and Super Matisse™ lessons. If you are joining online, great! Ensure your device is fully charged, and check with your tutor beforehand about what supplies you may need to prepare.
4 Which class should I join?
Choosing a class that suits your age group would be a great way to start. Your tutor will advise you if moving up or down a level may be more beneficial for your child. Check out the 'Find My Workshop' page for more details.
