Who knew just 6 colors can create a beautiful imagery of calm and peace. Our instructor was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire 3 + hour class.

I arrived 30 minutes before, but their lovely staff helped me set up food trays, decorations, etc., etc. The kids stayed in the art studio while being instructed to paint 'Derpy' from Kpop while the parents stayed in the outer area mingling and snacking. The kids got to keep the canvas they painted, they loved it, and all had a great time. Maria, the instructor was very, very calm and patient with the kids! Reasonably priced too. I would totally do it, again. I will consider it for every birthday party!

I recently called to inquire if I could purchase gift cards for drop in classes and the owner was…read moreso friendly and accommodating. They offer online gift cards on their website but I wanted to get a physical card to give as a present at a birthday party. We arranged a time for me to pick up the cards and when I came to pick them up, they were in the middle of a class and the set up was so adorable. All of the art on display was very cute and I could tell that they really do some unique and fun art projects here. The owner was very kind and I was able to observe the class while making my payment. I think this is the perfect place for young artists. I definitely recommend getting a certificate as a gift option or treating your child to a class or hosting a party here.

They absolutely love their weekly hour in class -- it's a special time they look forward to every week. The teachers are incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely care about each child.

I've watched my kids' artistic skills (and pride in their work!) grow so much since starting here. Drawn2Art is such a nurturing and inspiring place -- we feel so lucky to have found it!

Melanie Florio is a phenomenal art teacher. Out of five art teachers that I have had, she has been…read morethe only one that has helped me improve my art. As an example, the images attached show a before/after of a painting I did. The assignment was a self-portrait. This was my first time painting a portrait, and I was having significant trouble. After several hours of trying, and failing at home, I decided to wait until the next time I had class. When I got to class and asked for help, within fifteen minutes--literally--Melanie taught me the applicable knowledge, and some great advice that allowed me to immediately improve the painting to a satisfying outcome. Anybody interested in art is guaranteed to benefit from her classes. Her energetic passion for art is contagious. It is also very clear that she understands, and has the solution to many problems that an artist may face. She has an equal amount of patience and understanding for the beginner student as she does for her most advanced. She is very professional, yet has a genuine humility that creates an excellent learning environment. The knowledge and experience that I have gained through Melanie's classes have been priceless. Even art books, which are my other source of instruction, are so much easier to understand now. There are endless things that can be said about Melanie's dedication to her students, but what she has to offer must be experienced. So, if you are looking for a place that will provide the elements needed to improve your art skills, then M Florio Studio Arts should definitely be considered as a choice that will deliver that and so much more!

If you want to learn to paint or already paint, Melanie is an amazing person to guide you. She has…read morea contagious joyful demeanor that puts you at ease while navigating through the lesson. What ever level you are at, Melanie teaches to it. Best decision ever!!!! I used to paint in high school and in college. However, I haven't picked up a brush more than 3 times since I graduated 20 years ago. Melanie helped me to work through my nerves and pick up where I left off. While being in class I have heard lessons of technique in various styles of painting. I realized that throughout my life I pretty much self taught. I have been on a journey of unlearning bad habits and learning much better techniques. All facilitated through Melanie! The challenge is rewarding and I have come out with some of the best paintings I have ever done. Give her a chance and you'll never regret it!!!

I recommend Paulina's Art Studio for anyone serious about their child's art education. The owners,…read moreAlex and Paulina, have extensive backgrounds in art and are committed to teaching students in the traditional academic style -- as opposed to simply letting kids draw and have fun, as I have seen at many other studios. At the same time, they are very skilled at building rapport with children, no matter how young. My 8-year-old daughter attended a different studio before, where she had fun and produced some nice-looking projects, but the teachers told me she was too young to be truly taught anything. Luckily, that is not the case here. Since she joined in the fall of 2025, we have seen real progress in how she approaches and understands art techniques. I am happy to see that she enjoys it, too. They work with all kinds of materials, including clay, and hold an annual exhibition at the end of the year. We are happy to be part of the studio and look forward to watching our daughter grow.

She always says, "Never ask me if I want to go, I always want to go." That says everything! Gia truly loves Polina and Sasha and wants to spend every free moment she has at the studio with them. They are incredible teachers who not only teach strong skills and techniques, but also create a warm, nurturing, and highly professional environment. The studio is welcoming to both children and adults alike, and encourages creativity, confidence, and self-expression through various media. It has been so beautiful to watch our daughter's talent and creativity evolve over the years. We are so grateful for the positive impact Pauline's Art Studio has had on Gia and cannot recommend it highly enough.
