We were founded in 2010. Cobble Creek Studios Art Academy is an atelier offering fine art classical training. The curriculum provides a well-rounded program of precision drawing from life, color theory, painting techniques, and art appreciation. The classes continue throughout the year; you can start anytime, and the students progress at their own pace. Children as young as five also learn the same principles at their level.
