Over the past few weeks, our teen students have been creating original fantasy creatures inspired by organic forms, mysterious plants, insects, and imaginary worlds. From expressive ink textures to strange botanical details, each artwork became completely unique to its artist. 🌿👁️
What we love most is seeing students grow more confident in experimenting, taking creative risks, and developing their own visual style. No two creatures were alike — some eerie, some beautiful, some completely bizarre 😄
So proud of the imagination and artistic progress happening in the studio lately. More student creations coming soon! 🎨✨

Enjoy the school break!

Our junior artists had so much fun creating Kusama-inspired butterflies today! 🦋🎨
Using a tracing method and choosing their own bright colours, every butterfly turned out totally unique — just like the artists themselves! ✨
So much creativity, colour, and happy messiness in one lesson! 💛

✏️👁️ Observation is everything.
In this sketching exercise, our students used the grid method to study proportion, shading, and texture while drawing an eagle’s eye in fine detail. 🦅
What looks like “just sketching” is actually training the artist’s eye to slow down, notice tiny details, and build confidence mark by mark. The focus in the classroom during this session was intense… apart from the occasional “why are bird eyes so scary?” 😄
So proud of the patience and progress our young artists are showing every week. 🎨✨

🖤🌿 A wonderfully weird character design from Tina , our art student, inspired by Mandragora character!
Students explored organic shapes, ink textures, and dark fantasy themes to create their own unique creatures — and this piece turned out beautifully eerie. 👁️🌸✨
We love seeing how differently each young artist interprets the same idea. The image below is the artwork by Tina (10 yo).
More strange and magical creations coming soon!
