Class overview
Learn, Believe & Create
Welcome to Art Chakra!
I'm Rashmi—an artist and your instructor here. If you’re passionate about learning to draw and paint, you’ve come to the right place.
At Art Chakra, I offer comprehensive art instruction for all skill levels—from complete beginners to more experienced artists looking to grow further. Whether you're an adult rediscovering your love for art, a teen refining your skills, a tween just getting started, or a young child exploring creativity, there’s a place for you in my studio.
Classes are held in small, semi-private groups, so I can provide each student with the individual attention and support they need to thrive. As you progress, you'll be introduced to a wide range of mediums—from graphite and charcoal to oil pastels, ink, watercolor, acrylics, and mixed media.
My structured curriculum is designed not just to build strong technical skills, but also to nurture your unique creative voice. Every artist’s journey is different—and I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
Let’s create something beautiful together.
