In the right atmosphere painting becomes a powerful tool to support children to grow into healthy confident adults.

The Painting Studio provides quality materials, a supportive structure and caring experienced staff to create an environment that
•  Offers creative adventure and process
•  Encourages spontaneous self-expression
•  Respects each child’s individual needs
•  Removes the pressure of performing

The studio offers a safe context devoid of comparison or criticism. Children learn to trust, express the richness of their world, and respond to the critical judging voices within.

The basic principles of our work offers:
•  Creativity as play, adventure and self-expression
•  Intuition and spontaneity as the fuel and fire of creation
•  Creativity as a tool to enhance children’s lives

The painting develops confidence and self-esteem with an increased freshness and joyful participation in life.

All children are invited to come and experience the wonder of painting.
