Frequently asked questions about adult classes:
I am going to miss 1-2 classes. How do I make them up? Almost every student misses classes now and then. To arrange a make up, please email your studio up to 5 days in advance, we do not allow drop ins. - We offer up to 3 make ups per course/semester (1 make up for short 5-6 weeks courses) - Make ups are not guaranteed, but we will try our best. - No make ups can be scheduled after missed class. - A make up can not be rescheduled. Do I need to purchase materials? We provide the materials for the in-studio classes, there is no need to bring anything. However, it might be a good idea to purchase some art materials for practice at home. Online students neeed to purchase materials for their classes.

Testimonials:
I signed up for the portrait painting lessons with Cody Blocker. I had zero experience drawing or painting. I was able to start with zero and take it to 100 in a few sessions. Cody takes the mystery out of painting and allows you to reach your full potential! He is a wonderful teacher - very patient and supportive, and always there if you need help. I highly recommend his classes for anyone who wants to explore their creativity in a safe zone.
Art School SF is simply magical. I serendipitously walked by on my way to dinner during a class and immediately fell in love. I popped in to get info and Hannah was so helpful to get me plugged in. I had already missed the first class of the portrait workshop and she found time for me to come in and get caught up. Hannah is a spectacular teacher and I have learned a tremendous amount in a short time about the many aspects of painting--anatomy, drawing, oil painting basics, color theory, etc.
Thank you so much Maria & Andrew!
I still cannot believe i was able to paint a portrait like this by the end of the class. It would definitely recommended this class if someone wants to learn oil or acrylic painting.
