Please note that this is not a painting studio where you can just paint unglazed pieces. This is a studio where you have to make the piece from clay first before you can glaze!! There are a lot of glazes and underglazes available to choose from :)

I had met her at another painting party and instantly new i would use her myself. She travels outstide of the jurisdiction depending on location and charges for that but she is sooo worth it! My daughter had her Galentines themed party at home with a few friends and it was the cutest! Leticia helped picking the painting because she is familiar with 5 year olds. I liked the input and went with her recommendations. Party was a hit!

We started off with a relaxing breathing exercise, while playing the music of choice in the background . At the end of the lesson , she went around and asked each kid if they would like to share what they mostly like from the birthday girl . All the kids really enjoyed it, and it was definitely a memorable experience. I highly recommend Leticia !

Such a fun birthday for little girls. Absolutely loved it and will be booking again fora mom's day!read more

We hired Stephanie for our Girl Scout troop to help us earn an art badge. She was extremely…read moreresponsive and easy to work with up front. She brought everything day of from table cloths to aprons, and all the painting supplies. We had a large group of 16 very excited 6-7yr old girls so they were a lot to calm down so they could hear the instructions. But they had sooo much fun and were very proud of their designs! The design we did was perfect for their age and skill level and fit within the timeframe we wanted to finish in. I walked by a few kids during the event saying "this is so much fun!" I would highly recommend for kids or adults! But if you have a large group of littles like me, just know you should be hands on to help with their focus or anything else so Stephanie can focus on the lesson! She did walk around and help but we had a large group and I think it was helpful we had a couple parents walking around to keep us on our timeline!

(We painted the surf shack at Windnsea.) And It's really affordable - $35 includes everything. Paint, canvas, hors d'oeuvres... EVERYTHING! (Other places in the area aren't all inclusive.) It's a really fun night and something different to do in San Diego. For either a girls night out, date night, private party or group outing like we did, I highly recommend it!

As a senior citizen, now retired, I have always wanted to take drawing and watercolor lessons. I…read morewas lucky enough to notice on a "Nextdoor" posting by Sonserae Leese that she was offering private art lessons. She has an extensive art background. I started art lessons in February 2019 with no previous experience drawing except for water coloring as a child. In the short time I have taken lessons, there has been a noticeable difference in my attempts to draw with pencil and pastels. Sonserae is an excellent instructor and has a teaching style that simplifies the steps for students like me to apply the knowledge she has demonstrated. Sonserae has a tremendous background in watercolors and I am looking forward to her sharing her techniques and knowledge in future lessons. Attached are two drawing projects that I have completed while under her tutelage. The first project is after four months of instruction (apple) and the second after six months.
