About the class

A relaxed, no-pressure art class where creativity comes first. In this art journey, your teens will explore drawing, painting, and mixed media while building confidence and discovering their unique style. No experience needed — just curiosity and a willingness to create in our peaceful studio in Hout Bay.

• An introduction to composition (how to arrange a picture)

Teacher

Janice Grant

I am an artist and teacher at heart, with a background in fine art, photography and graphic design. Drawing and painting are my happy place—a space where I can slow down, switch off, and just create. I love pencil and pen, especially a good doodle where I can get lost in detail, but I also enjoy getting messy with oils and experimenting with clay. I’m happiest when I’m exploring and trying new things rather than overthinking them. Teaching feels completely natural to me. I love sharing creativity in a relaxed, fun way where people feel free to try, play, and surprise themselves. While I don’t focus much on showing my own work, I’m passionate about helping others discover their creativity. I’m inspired by nature, tiny details, emotions, and a lifelong love of elephants.
