Our Philosophy
Art education is not only valuable but also essential, as it uniquely enhances the cognitive and emotional development of individuals in ways distinct from other disciplines. Hence we aim to provide quality art education for all students to gain mastery in art making and to nurture their creative potential.
In Artgrain, We firmly believe that aesthetic experiences and the enjoyment of the arts are essential components of a rich and fulfilling life. Our mission is to foster this sensitivity and the capacity to both create and appreciate art among children and adults alike.

How We Nurture The Artist's Perspective?
Cultivating
Uniqueness
Learning Through Seeing
Closely Guided Instructions
Our school focuses on developing students as thinkers and artists with an individual voice
Art is not just about gaining the tools to express yourself, but about knowing exactly what you want to express. In our school, we encourage our students to connect authentically with project themes and creative assingments, responding with their individual perspectives, emotions, and ideas. Through open dialogue and creative exploration, teachers help students uncover their unique voices, allowing them to infuse personal meaning and interpretation into their projects.
We believe that observational skills are the basis of art making
At Artgrain, we believe that observational skills are the foundation of art making. Paying close attention to the world around us is what allows artists to understand visual reality, recreate it in their works, and express their emotional connection to their personal experiences. In our classes, we guide our students in practicing their observational skills through drawing from references and from life.
We are a team of dedicated and skilled teachers with art backgrounds and experiences
Artgrain teachers employ a hands-on approach to teaching, emphasizing skill demonstration and close guidance. They lead by example, demonstrating how to achieve various techniques and artistic effects. Through close observation and correction, teachers offer personalized guidance, helping students refine their skills, address areas of improvement, and nurture their artistic thinking.
