Vancouver fine arts school introduces the world of art to children and adults through professional art classes and creative programs.

Hi! We are Jennifer and Polina, the founders of the Free Form Studio, art school for children and adults.

We know for sure – art changes lives. Our art school for kids 5+ offers creative art classes and art camps that build skills and confidence.

We teach painting and drawing classes for children by blending the rich traditions of European art practice with the freedom of personal creativity.

What will my child learn?
Students develop foundational fine art skills, including drawing from observation, color mixing, composition, and brushwork. We introduce classical techniques while encouraging independent thinking and personal expression.


What will they create?
Children work on structured projects such as still life paintings, drawings from life, and imaginative compositions. Each piece is guided but allows room for individual interpretation, resulting in artwork that is both technically strong and personal.


What happens in class?
Each session begins with a short introduction or demonstration, followed by guided work time. Students receive individual attention from the instructor, learn to observe carefully, and gradually build confidence in their artistic abilities in a calm, focused studio environment.
