September 2027 intake
01 / Classes
A place for every
creative beginning.
Four proposed learning paths, shaped around age, experience and curiosity. Your preferences will help us form the first groups.
9–12 YEARS
Young Artists
90 minutes · weekly
Observation, proportion, colour and composition. Develop a sketchbook and a personal point of view.
13–17 YEARS
Teen Studio
120 minutes · weekly
Drawing foundations, painting and visual storytelling. Experiment with references and develop a personal project.
18+
Adult Atelier
120 minutes · weekly
Begin or return to art. Practise drawing from observation and painting, with space for your own direction.
Proposed launch format: up to 8 students per group. Teachers, group sizes, teaching languages, fees and materials will be confirmed before enrolment.
02 / ARTI STUDIO
Real art.
Room to experiment.
A gallery offers a direct encounter with original artworks. We propose using current exhibitions as starting points for observation, discussion and making.
01 / LOOK
Learn to notice.
Observe a line, a shadow, a colour relationship. Start from the world around you.
02 / EXPERIMENT
Build skills through practice.
Short demonstrations, guided exercises and individual feedback adapted to each age group.
03 / MAKE IT YOURS
Develop an idea.
Bring techniques together in a personal work, reflect on your process and share what you discovered.
03 / Programme · 12
From first marks
to your own project.
A proposed 12-session cycle: one class each week, with age-appropriate exercises and different levels of challenge. The final calendar will account for school holidays.
01–02
Line, shape & looking
Contour, gesture, negative space and first sketchbook studies.
03–04
Light, volume & proportion
Simple objects, tonal values, charcoal or pencil, and observation.
05–06
Colour & paint
Mixing, warm and cool colour, brushwork and a small painting study.
07–08
Composition & artistic references
Balance, rhythm, cropping and responses to artworks seen in the gallery.
09–10
Personal project
Choose a subject, make studies and develop a drawing, painting or mixed-media work.
11–12
Finish, reflect & share
Refine the work, explain your choices and prepare a small studio presentation.
Proposed outcome: a working sketchbook, several studies and one personal project. Progress matters more than copying a single “perfect” picture.

04 / FAQ
Curiosity is
a good starting point.
Do I need experience?
Beginners are welcome. Tell us about your experience so we can suggest a suitable group. Teen and adult projects can be adapted for returning learners.
Who will teach the classes?
The teaching team is being planned. Teacher profiles and confirmed class languages will be shared before you enrol. Anna Beznasiuk coordinates the school within ARTI Studio.
What will it cost? Are materials included?
Fees, payment options, materials and any trial-class arrangements will be confirmed before enrolment. The interest list is free and does not create a booking.
Which languages will be available?
Tell us your preference: French, English or Russian. Preferences help us plan; availability will be confirmed for each group.
Is this a diploma programme?
This is a proposed leisure and practice-based art programme, rather than an accredited qualification or a guaranteed art-school admissions course.
How does pre-enrolment work?
Send your preferences. Our team will discuss a group and provide confirmed times, fees and terms. Your place is confirmed only after you accept those details.
