MASTERWORKS CHILDREN’S ART STUDIO

We love Masterworks! My daughter has been taking classes here for 2 years. Lisa is a wonderful teacher. She comes up with creative thoughtful new projects and ways to inspire her students week after week. Even her snacks, which are AMAZING, align with the projects! Think pot stickers for Chinese New Year project, waffles when studying Belgian artist René Magritte, etc. So fun! I highly recommend this program and I’m so glad we discovered it for our child.

Love this art class. My daughter has gone after school for the last few years. Lisa provides a wonderful environment where the kids learn about various artists, techniques and enjoy creating their own masterpieces.

Lisa’s art instruction at Masterworks is amazing! Lisa is an incredibly talented artist and provides her students with detailed, hands-​on instruction that is unmatched. I think between my two daughters we’ve been enrolled at Masterworks for almost a decade and we could not be more pleased with the positive, engaging and creative environment she creates for her students.

My kids love Lisa and her class. And the art they do is really great — not the typical stuff that ends up in the trash, but items that we truly frame and display and cherish for years. I don’t know what Melodie P. is talking about in her review (and it’s several years outdated at this point). Lisa is always there with the door open, welcoming, ready to start the class when we arrive.

Awesome! My daughter loves Masterworks and Lisa, and so do we. She’s amazing with all age groups and holds their interest for an astounding amount of time. The after school class is an hour and :45. We’ve been going for several years now and it’s been great to watch our child’s talents blossom. Also taken some of the Summertime, longer-​day courses and always had a ton of fun. Lisa manages to balance focused time with some moving around and a bit of snack. Somehow manages to take care of a huge range of talents and temperaments and some high maintenance parents to boot. Never had a problem with starting on time and she always try’s to help us with make-​up classes if we’re the ones that reschedule. Truly a godsend to a busy parent. We and a few school friends always grab the next class as soon as it’s available so we don’t get booked out. I’d give more stars if I could.

I’m so glad we found Masterworks. Lisa is a wonderful teacher and encourages so much creativity from the kids. Both the weekly classes and camps are sensational!

My daughter is 13 and has been attending Lisa’s classes at Masterworks since she was 5. We started at Masterworks because we wanted something more than an arts & crafts class, which was hard to find in elementary school. Even though she was young, Lisa taught her how to use watercolors, pencils, acrylics, sculpture and weaved in art history at each opportunity. Now, as one of the older students, it’s really lovely how she has developed and to see how young artists from age 10 – 14 can work alongside and support each other. Lisa is able to direct each student to improve in such a positive way. She also is a wonderful mentor for young artists. Her own street art is fantastic and she is known in the art community and shares advice for those interested in pursuing art beyond the class. Lisa is a gift to the community and so is this class.

My daughter has been attending Masterworks Art Studio for 3 years and it is, by far, her favorite after school program. It’s unique in the way Lisa teaches/​exposes them, to art and art history. I have never had any issues other than a one time miscommunication on payment deadlines that Lisa resolved as soon as it came to light, I have never had any issue like the other reviewer and have posted this more positive review with my own experience over 3 years.

The art classes for children are good. Children enjoy learning all the aspects of art. One problem is that classes begin at a specific time and the owner shows up at the exact time the class starts. All the kids and parents are waiting outside the studio until she arrives (and she lives above the studio) THe kids lose time actually doing art because by the time she arrives and gets the kids seated and ready to go 15 minutes of the class is over. I think if she could arrive for the classes about 10 – 15 minutes earlier so the kids are settled and ready to go at the noted class time parents would not feel that an hour class is really only 45. minutes. Just a thought
