Mel’s Art101 class is such a phenomenal program for our daughter. She not only produces incredible artwork each week, she is learning valuable techniques in a range of mediums.
Mel is so kind and encouraging in her approach. She knows each of her students interests and strengths which ensures each individual feels confident and achieves to the best of their ability.
I cannot thank Mel enough for this amazing art program. My daughter is truly happier and more confident as a result.

Mel has so much experience and love for art that she inspires me to grow whatever tiny amount of creativity I possess.
Mel naturally connects with each student’s individual style and preference, then challenges us with helpful techniques and also understanding on the why and how.
Mel is the very best art teacher and such a lovely person too!

I have been with Mel for 9 years and still find her classes inspiring.
Mel has extensive knowledge and experience in the full range of art mediums and her interpersonal skills are terrific.
She is very knowledgeable and her communication style is encouraging, confidence building and friendly.
Mel can bring out the sleeping artist from within !!
Thank you Mel!

We went to Mel for charcoal drawing lessons having ZERO experience in art and we couldn’t have been happier with the results.
Mel is a great teacher and her guidance helped us create drawings we were proud to hang on any wall.
Highly recommend her lessons!

Mel is by far the best visual arts teacher we have ever been to!
She has brought out the talent of our 14 year old daughter - we had no idea how talented she was until we went to Mel - and our words can't express our sincere gratitude! Young to old, any type of medium, so very talented - we love you Mel!

I always wanted to take art classes. Drawing was something I thought I am not capable of, abstract painting maybe, but certainly not drawing.
First thing Mel told me when I decided to give it a go was that I will be surprised what I am capable of and after just 2 classes, I was surprised!
I enjoy every class as it is amazing to be around creative people who encourage one another. It is a great place, great teacher. Highly recommended.

A great relaxed atmosphere where you can learn so much about yourself and your abilities with pencil, charcoal, paint brush - whatever!
Mel is the best guide ever, Mel is amazing!
Thank you so much Mel.

Art classes with Mel have been a wonderful distraction from my everyday life.
For 2 hours I focus on something just for fun and have achieved results that I would never have thought possible.
Mel pushes us outside of our comfort zone (and makes it ok to go outside the lines!).
