I absolutely LOVED this class. We painted Biggie Smalls, which I thought was going to be really difficult, but Vasu made it so easy to follow along. He would also come around to assist everyone if we needed anything. He's a true artist at heart and was loads of fun to work with! Would definitely do this again!

I've attended several of these classes at La Pittura and I really enjoy these session. This was a fun painting to recreate. I love my copy. The artist Vasu guides you step-by-step so its easy to complete for all levels, especially if its your first time painting. But he also lets you do your own thing to make the painting more of a reflection of who you are. La Pittura offers painting on canvas, sneakers or tote bags. And now they offer a Wine Bar. Really cool! The instructors have created a pleasant, enjoyable, learning atmosphere for adults and children. I Will definitely be back!

The instructor was great and we later found out that he was also the owner which made it even worth while he took his time and showed us all the necessary steps to achieve a great painting and it was our first time as a couple.

These painting sessions at Pittura Studio are great. The artist, Vasu, guides you step-by-step to help you complete a painting. Great for beginners! and those with experience as well as you will always learn a new technique. These are great sessions to attend as a group or if you just love to paint. Great atmosphere. Look forward to my next session as always.

This was my second time here. Again I had a lot of fun.
It's just to good to break out from your routine of going back and forth between
your house and your work. Paint and sip wine for two hours always opens up new doors
for you. I'll do it again.
