She listened to all the details and pictures I provided for her and created a magical watercolor of a desert night by the river exactly how I remember it.

We love it so much and can't thank Megan enough for helping us create this beautiful piece that will be displayed in our home forever. Thank you Megan!!!

She's so talented and has an incredible way of teaching…read more I've seen her working with people from kindergarten age up to adults, and they've all produced work that is phenomenal! Megan is a complete sweetheart, and anytime I have spent time with her, I always leave in a very happy and upbeat mood. She is thoughtful and kind, and she'll make you feel like you have your own set of abilities even if you can barely draw a stick figure. Beyond her teaching style being great, her art abilities are absolutely breathtaking. I have seen her work with different mediums, from oil to acrylic paint to pencil, and they all come out beyond anything I could imagine. They're all pieces that you'll be taught to create and be so proud to hang in your home, regardless of what you think you can create, I promise!

I went to see a few friends show their work this month, and was taken aback by the gallery. Mike and Candace have done an amazing job with the space they own, and the way they display their artists' work makes the whole experience super fun and unique. Every nook and cranny of the warehouse has something interesting, and i feel like I'm walking through a labyrinth of personal expression. They also have DJs spinning, live bands, or just random music playing throughout. It's also very close to a lot of bars and restaurants off Harbor, so spend some time checking out this place before hitting up your favorite pub or restaurant.

My son and I begin going to Art Academics early this year…read more My son took art classes before and has natural talent but I was truly a beginner. I had no idea what to expect or if I was going to be able to learn anything. On our first class, my son chose the art medium - sketching. By the end of the class, with Valerie's guidance, I had actually completed my first drawing; a light bulb! My son's project was a lot more involved and completed his drawing in three classes. He sketched a dog, and WOW!!! I've always receive complements on his 3rd grade school paintings (now in 8th grade) but Valerie really helped him tap into his talent. I later decided that I was more compelled to paint dramatic landscaped and started in acrylic then moved on to oil painting. I always felt that I had a natural appreciation for nature and loved to bask in its beauty; however, after taking this class, I've begun to notice colors in nature that I've never pick up on before; like, all of the purples, reds, blues, and variations of whites and greys in the clouds. I really appreciate Valerie's teaching style. She is very patient yet is able to push the student out of their comfort zone with grace. The learning environment is comfortable and causal. Artists of all skill levels and ages are welcome and there is never a competitive spirit. Only appreciation and encouragement.

A friend of mine told us about the Dr. Seuss art exhibit at Sarah Bain, so we decided to check it…read moreout. Truth be told, I was not initially awe struck about the idea of seeing art by Dr. Seuss. To that extent, I was still interested. I could not expect the experience I was about to encounter. Upon entering the gallery, the rare unorthodox taxidermy mountings were hilarious. They were colorful and gracefully obnoxious. I had no idea Dr. Seuss also created these types of figures. Although the mountings are replicas, they are created using original molds. The original mountings are made of paper mâché and obviously super fragile and rare. The mountings on display ranged from a couple of thousand to several. As I continued through the gallery, I immediately recognized several of Dr. Seuss's classic stories and characters, such as the Cat in Hat. I was transported back to my youth and remembered positive experiences reading with my parents. I was shocked to realize the impact this complex artist and author actually had on me. I found several lithographs that were affordable, but it was difficult to choose. The Sarah Bain staff was extremely helpful and knowledgable. Daniel provided interesting information and immediately emailed artwork dimension sizes to me. If ever in downtown Brea, you must stop at Sarah Bain Gallery and take a look......it's free!

She's very understanding, intuitive, and observant. She knows the needs of each child and nurtures the artistic side for each child by their personality and skills.

As she got older, she started working on ceramics, painting, production design, and digital art. Miss Connie works with the community and schools. She has students enter local art contests as well as art contests world wide. She has knowledge of preparatory art schools in southern california that can prepare a child for its future courses.
