I have been going to The artstudio for 5 years now. Ms. Sampat has made my love of art escalate over the years. She not only helps us to refine our skills but also to develop our simple ideas into fascinating pieces. Her studio is my favorite place to work. Everyone, there is always thinking like an artist, and just being surrounded by art enthusiasts makes painting so much more fun. We often do critiques on our work, which allows us to gain a deeper understanding of our own work. One of my favorite things that we do is visit galleries and different art shows. We get a chance to analyze artworks as well as interact with the artists and curators. This has helped me develop a greater understanding of art as a whole. It is also very stimulating for us to start thinking differently. I think, at The artstudio, our learning in art is a balanced mix of art appreciation, understanding of artists and their styles, and work in every possible medium.
