It's our 3rd anniversary!!!
It has been 3 years already since we took the leap to build this dream and opened our doors to you. Rest assured we don't plan on stopping any time soon. We have even bigger plans this year.
Growing Potential: It's great to see the wave rippling through from people sharpening their pencils properly to those who participate and practice consistently are really showing their skills. We have seen you all grow as artists, improving your craft in such a short time. We hope to keep teaching more and more skills in order to bring up Calgarys Art scene to great new levels.
New teachers: We keep adding to our roster of fantastic teachers, opportunities and courses. https://www.atelierartista.com/new
We are lucky to Have Bobbi Dunlop teaching tow fantastic painting classes on Thursdays.
Keith Springall is sharing his tips and tricks Thursday evenings and is a regular at all of our drop in sessions.
Luke Church host Tuesday night short pose drop-in as well as courses in the Riley Method Monday evenings 7-9.
We also have some secret stuff in the works for spring so stay tuned...
Figure sessions: We continue to consistently host our Drop-in figure nights Tuesdays short pose and Wednesday Long pose as well as additional "special session" opportunities.

Convenience shopping:
We carry what you need! We started a little convenience art store where you can get many of the art materials we have on our class lists. So far we have whats on the chalkboard, in case you run out, cant get to the art store or aren't sure what you are looking for. We will not offer delivery, but you will be able to pick them up at our class and add them to your cart during registration. Hopefully this will make it far less confusing and convenient for our cherished students.
Finally, we are working on updating our website over the next while to make it easier to navigate. We welcome any advice and input from you our students and users so that we can better serve you. You can email us: atelierartistayyc@gmail.com
