Make your next creative move! Between our Early Fall and Late Fall sessions, there’s a fresh, exciting lineup of classes running now through December.

Sometimes the best way to grow creatively is simply to try something different. Refine a familiar skill, explore a completely new form of design, or discover a creative tradition you’ve never encountered before. Wherever your curiosity is pointing, these upcoming classes are your invitation to follow it.

Countdown to mural day!

Six years ago, Nick Burns (aka Ninja Picasso) read an article about Walt and felt called to paint him. In 2 1/2 days, Nick created a masterpiece. We unveiled that portrait entitled “Gentle Giant” on November 6, 2020. Six years later, Nick has painted the mural titled “Walt’s Walk” a big, striking piece filled with images, color, and meaning. There is a story woven into this mural, one that is best told by seeing it in person. Thank you, Nick. We hope you can make it! Please RSVP at the 🔗 in our bio.

I have been taking photos of the beautiful art and murals in the Greenville County area for many years. There is scarcely a blank wall in our county that can remain plain once our local artists set their minds—and brushes—to it. With a little paint, a great deal of talent, and imaginations too lively to be fenced in, they turn ordinary brick into windows of beauty and give our county’s stories a place to live in full color. Thank you! Beautiful @njapgallery

Living Artists YouTube Channel Episode 9 is here — a full summer in the life of a working artist. 🎨📦

This one’s a slow-burn, no-narration-needed kind of watch. Ride along as I ship out finished paintings, hit the road for art festivals, network with collectors and fellow artists, grind through studio hours, sketch mural concepts in Procreate, and scout upcoming mural sites with clients. No script, no gimmicks — just real life as a working artist, murals to museums to messy studio days.

If you’re into low-key “come with me” content — the kind you throw on and just vibe to while you work, eat, or wind down — this is for you. Grab a coffee, get comfy, and spend an hour in my world.

🎨 What’s in this episode:
– Packing & shipping artwork
– Art fair prep + on-site vending
– Studio grind & painting process
– Procreate mural concept sketches
– Mural site visits & client walkthroughs
– Behind-the-scenes networking moments
