Painting courses and art courses

Svetlana Ruoho's art and painting courses will inspire you on your artistic journey. There are courses for beginners and more experienced artists alike.

With the guidance of a professional painter, you can overcome the fear of the blank canvas. I also organize private mini-courses at an agreed-upon time.

Inspiring and encouraging instruction, along with practical tips on-site.

So awaken your inner artist with a creative course.

An art course also makes an excellent intangible gift.

"Svetlana is an excellent art teacher: she teaches the whole group, but also pays attention to individuals and their unique qualities.

Svetlana's courses contain just the right amount of group study, but also enough time for painting in peace. Svetlana always gives feedback, and it's pleasant to discuss work in progress with her."

-Riikka
