I've had the opportunity to join Tika for two paintings and I enjoyed them both greatly! In fact,…read morethey are a couple of my favorites of the 7 or so that I have done at various establishments! Tika's business is a tiny bit hard to find...your GPS will tell you that you have arrived and you will be in the middle of Crater Lake Avenue wondering if you are drunk or crazy. You might be, but Visions of Wonderland is a tucked away corner of one of the three buildings on the corner lot there. Essentially, pull in like you are going to Squeeze-In Sandwich shop and drive around the building to the back. Tucked in the corner you will find Visions! Tika has a great attitude, a fun style, serves up coffee, tea and sometimes a sweet snack. You can bring your own beverages and snacks, as well. Tika is patient and talks the class easily through the painting, even challenging ones! I've been following Visions of Wonderland on Facebook for the last few months, and I love how Tika keeps it interesting, promotes the different classes, for kids, different media and she also takes suggestions for new ideas! If you have ever wanted to try a "sip and paint" or are looking for a different place to try, check out Tika at Visions of Wonderland!

The Glass Forge is amazing. Glassblowing is a magical craft and the artwork that Lee and his team…read moreperform/create at The Glass Forge is exceptional. We visit whenever we're in Southern Oregon and are never disappointed. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of visiting is that this is a working studio. Glass is blown almost every day and it's an engaging activity to watch. Perusing the gallery or watching new items being created is a great way to start to understand what you might like (or imagine broader possibilities than you might have walking in). If you're new to blown glass or merely curious, an entry point is their Orbs - which are amazing upgrades to any Christmas trees. Their amazing range of colors and gorgeous swirled patterns are spellbinding in the way they catch the lights on your tree. And that's only the beginning. If that's not your holiday, they have pumpkins, snowpeople and a range of other entertaining options. Beyond the holiday wares, they have a diversity of glassware ranging from beautiful wine stems and champagne flutes to chunkier highballs, daily tableware and a vast array of other vessels of every shape/size/color/pattern/wow. And then there's the artwork. This is where things get truly impressive. They have an array of vases and bowls in different shape/size/color/pattern/wow and a wider variety of broader glass artwork too diverse to describe here. These make unique, exceptional gifts that to lean into when your recipient deserves something which transcends what you might find in our homogenous world of online shopping. Custom artwork is not inexpensive, but we find the prices very reasonable for the quality of the products offered. Concerned about the treasure you find not making it home in your plane/train/automobile? In addition to being master craftsmen of glassblowing, they are ninja packagers of their wares. We have trusted them to ship our treasures home several times (including this trip) and have never been disappointed. The Glass Forge is an experience. The master craftsmen working there are gifted. Their products are works of art. Visiting is an opportunity not to be missed.

Met up with family in Grants Pass. We decided we want to try glass blowing…read more Cool place, amazing people- great experience. The hardest part was selecting what color glass you wanted. There were a variety of color choices and for me the best part was loads of glass to look at to get a visual idea. We go back and we have Keegan as our instructor. He's amazing. he's very patient super knowledgeable, and parting knowledge while giving instruction. When you select your item to make be aware that some items are former complex and others. One of the members in our group made the paperweight. It was a fascinating process to watch however, it was a lot of work. I did a pumpkin and it turned out so much better than I could've ever imagined. I would definitely come back here again

The quality of Houston's workmanship is beyond comparison. I have used their services for many…read moreyears and have never been disappointed. As for the alleged incident one of these "reviews" is referring to. I would venture to say the proprietor of the business referred to as "The Framery," which frequented the store prior to Houston's knows more about of what we speak. LOL However, with that being said, There is nothing wrong with the quality of Houston's work. As a matter of fact, in my many years in the art business I have never had as a good a framer as Houston.

Perhaps this place offers decent framing services, but in no way should they be advertising "photo…read morerestoration" with any legitimacy. I brought in a vintage photo to have minor damage touched up and the frame it was in repaired. What I received was a damaged photo and a pack of lies. Claims were made which were simply untrue, and the worst part is that instead of being honest about the damage the lies were piled on by both owners. Afterwards I discovered there's a big reason "Tom" had to move his business from Main St. to this rather obscure location. Fortunately there isn't a restaurant next door. AVOID THIS PLACE!!

Students learn how to build a painting from the ground up—starting with strong drawing, clear value organization, and intentional color use. Classes are designed to move artists beyond copying and toward true understanding, helping them develop confidence, independence, and their own artistic voice. All levels work within the same system, allowing beginners to build a solid foundation while more experienced artists continue to refine and grow. Instruction is tailored to the individual, while still maintaining a clear, consistent process that supports long-term development.
