We loved class with Ms. Susan! We took several sessions last year and my 6 yr old LOVED it. She even made a friend in class who she saw this summer in camp. We are signing up again for the fall. This was exactly what I was looking for when I was trying to find someone local who was teaching art at her home.

AB Fine Art Studio is a wonderful place to take art classes. In 4 weeks, my daughter learned about Matisse, Klimt and was able to work with several mediums. I can’t say enough good things about both Ms. Kristin and Mrs. Susan. Both are gifted artists and patient teachers. My daughter is looking forward to taking more classes with them in the future!

This our first time doing a camp with Kristin and Susan. They were so wonderful! All three of my children had a fabulous experience and we’re encouraged to express themselves in their pieces. My youngest is incredibly shy in new experiences and they helped her feel comfortable quickly and helped distract her from feeling upset about my dropping her off. I would definitely recommend and will be signing up again!

Hi Lisa, I am so sorry you had a negative experience during the Free Election Day OP ART Class. We could not tell on our end that there were any issues, but I am sure it was very frustrating trying to follow along with a class that kept freezing. The issue may have been due to it being Election Day and Facebook was overloaded with traffic and coverage. We will do our best to ensure that it does not happen again in the future. If you would like to give it another try, the class was recorded and saved to our facebook page. Our sincerest apologies, AB Fine Art Studio

AB Fine Art Studio is truly incredible. The way the staff connects with the kids, their professional demeanor, and the quality of the teaching goes far and above many art schools for kids that we have been a part of. They are highly recommended whether taking an online course or an in-person one. You will not be disappointed and your kids will be very happy!

I’ve booked a ladies’ day out here and had so much fun painting with girl friends. We drive from Scripps a Ranch to Carlsbad weekly and it’s worth every minute and mile!!

We were visiting the area from out of state and was looking for some activity for our 10 year old grand daughter. She thoroughly enjoyed herself! She enjoyed the techniques she was taught and stated the activities were fun and evenly spaced. She never got bored. We especially like the end product of the Toucan water color. We will attend again if our schedule allows it. Good Job AB Fine Arts!
