Guided learning in a nice environment

Would say this is more of guided learning where you first try your hands at it, and then be guided on areas of improvement. Note that you won't be able to finish a still art in one lesson.


Environment of the studio is suitable for painting

Friendly and approachable staff. However the lesson conducted is a bit free style so we feel kind of lost at the stage. Whenever we are stuck, we will raise up our hand and the trainer will come and guide us, giving us advices on our painting. Hence you can't be too shy to ask or else nothing will be learnt.


Professional guidance by the instructors!

I was utterly impressed by the professional trial class provided by the Centre's instructors - they were very patient in guiding me at my own pace & the session was entirely fuss-free as I did not have to prepare any materials since it was all provided as part of the package.

Enjoyed myself thoroughly, and looking forward to continuing my class here! :)


Brief, interesting experience

It was mostly independent, I can't say I received a lot of valuable advice however I still found it a stimulating experience to engage in still-life drawing. Might work out better for people who already have some background in acting.


Intro to Batik: Enlightening but slow hard work

It was an informative and very interesting workshop. Instructor touched on history of Indonesian batik & we were given several templates to work on. Putting the wax on the handkerchief was a bit messy but fun! Cons: Would be good if there were enough tools - the wax applicator came in various sizes but not enough small size. Waste time waiting & taking turns to do the waxing.
