I went to this art academy during the summer to learn more about painting and I really enjoyed the place! Robin as well as her daughter, Shannon, are well knowledged in arts, they’re patient, and nice! I personally haven’t touched any paint since elementary school but with their guidance, I learned on color blending and in what order to paint it. This art academy teaches for both adults and children and is very family friendly. I would definitely recommend this place to anybody who wants to learn how to paint or draw and would come back to this place again!

I have had the absolute pleasure of taking eight classes from Robin before I head off to college. She is an absolutely wonderful and kind person, and a truly gifted teacher. She really knows how to teach someone the tools and skills they need to be able to paint on their own. She has created a wonderful and encouraging environment in San Carlos. I am incredibly grateful for her time and have found it incredibly rewarding. I’m so proud of my sunflower painting, which has been well worth the many hours spent on it. If you are looking for an amazing art teacher, Robin is the person to go to!

SC Art Academy is located in the new Art Center of Redwood City and San Carlos. Go up the stairs, make a right, and you will see the studio. SCAA offers afternoon classes, summer camp sessions and even private lessons! They are open to all skill levels. The Academy is family run and the two founders/teachers are very friendly and helpful. Registration forms are available on their site or at the studio. Class descriptions are also found on the website. While you’re at The Art Center, check out all the other awesome art that populates the hallways there. The Art Center is home to many local artists and they just had their grand opening July 25! A short description off their site, : «At SCAA, we take an integrated approach to teaching art. We explore both the history of art, and its practical application. We research how Masters throughout the ages have created art, then use these techniques to create our own masterpieces! We’ll study Raphael’s use of perspective, Monet’s use of color, Picasso’s use of composition and much more. Everyone can do it, we will show you how!»
