    For over five years, Pauline's Art Studio has been an integral part of our family, and I honestly can hardly imagine a more inspiring place for my children to learn and grow. This Los Angeles art studio in Tarzana is in fact one-of-a-kind, representing a real neighborhood treasure that offers everything from beginner to advanced drawing lessons, painting instruction, even ceramic art classes, in a warm and uplifting environment that is incredibly professional. My kids just love attending their art sessions. Whether it is the sketching sessions, the painting and drawing sessions, figure drawing sessions, portrait drawing lessons, charcoal drawing sessions, acrylic painting sessions, watercolor sessions, ceramic art sessions, or for that matter, their hands-on sessions in the sculpting studio - my kids always walk out overflowing with positive emotions. They return home proud, excited, and ready to show me all the new tips and techniques they learned on that day. Their artistic development is truly amazing. Both my children receive constant praise at school for their abilities to draw, and teachers frequently comment on how advanced and detailed their artwork is. I know without a doubt that this growth is the direct result of the extraordinary instruction they receive from Pauline and Alex. Both Pauline and Alex are professional art instructors who bring a tremendous depth of knowledge, creativity, and teaching skill. My older child constantly talks about how much they admire Pauline and Alex's drawing and painting techniques, from figure drawing classes to portrait drawing lessons to time spent in the pottery and clay studio. Their ability to connect with children while teaching real, high-level artistic methods is truly rare. The studio itself is warm, welcoming, and full of inspiration. It offers so many kinds of programs for all ages and skill levels, from beginners through advanced levels in traditional drawing, painting, and even sculpting studio activities. Whether a child wants to explore clay modeling, try pottery, dive into watercolor techniques, or refine their sketching and shading skills, this studio offers everything a growing artist could hope for. This is the place if you are searching for high-quality art lessons, a creative pottery and clay studio, a supportive sculpting studio, or the best children's (and adults') drawing-and-painting lessons in Los Angeles, Tarzana neighborhood. I highly recommend Pauline's Art Studio as it has greatly boosted my children's confidence, nurtured their creativity, and instilled in them a love for art. We feel very grateful for everything Pauline and Alex have done to develop our children's artistic skills.

    Fantastic art studio! My daughter has been attending since she was 3 and loves every class. She gets to explore drawing, painting, and ceramics in a fun, creative, and inspiring environment. The teachers are highly professional and encourage her imagination and artistic growth every step of the way. We couldn't be happier!

    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!!!
