Private Art Lessons
I'm so proud of all the hard work at the art table! Check out our seasonal shows,
and sign up for Art Lessons.
Engage the Senses
Programs for every age and ability, both adults and children welcome!
Private lessons are professionally tailored to your needs. Lesson time usually includes drawing warm up exercises, medium techniques, in-depth subject studies, color theory, and art history.
Take a sojourn in the field and studio...The foundation of all our classes, workshops and camps began with private instruction garnered from Christy's twenty years of experience as a professional artist and instructor. A certified and trained Environmental Educator, she also brings fresh naturalist knowledge to the outside art table.
Check out our Wall of Fame, celebrating art student work each season!
This time is all yours. Artists leave class refreshed, confident and inspired.
Lessons make great gifts for someone whose life you want to enrich.
It's nice to have options
Since March of 2020, artists of middle and high school age have been enjoying the virtual option when needed in our weekly private and semi-private art lessons with Christy. She custom designs each lesson for the individual artist and delivers fresh supplies, mediums and inspirations to your door each week, then walks you through an engaging art plan via Face Time at an hour that works for you.
These are not mass kits; they are custom project provocations designed for the individual artist.

Pricing
2024 lessons pricing remains the same:
Dear Families,
In a world of ever-increasing costs, enjoy a great value on lessons pricing that remains the same, thanks to my loyal clients who have stayed with me during the pandemic.
Lessons are $50 per hour session or $180 for a block of four lessons (a $20 savings) which I recommend to get into a routine that artists can then practice on their own or continue. You can pay via cash, check or venmo on the first day of the block.
You can even join with a friend for a more social experience: $40 per artist per lesson or $140 per block of four lessons per artist.
See you in the Field & Studio,
Ms. Knight
Pay via cash, check or Venmo.
Want to go virtual? Christy will deliver a custom supply packet to you within three miles of Chastain Park for an additional $5 per session and connect on FaceTime during the lesson.
