WHAT PEOPLE SAY
REY R.
My son had never painted before so he was a bit apprehensive at first, but Isis made clear up front that everyone is an artist. By setting the table with this approach, my son and I dove into picking our projects and learning to lightly sketch out our images. Isis proceeded to teach us about color and how to begin to approach the painting. She did it with such grace and kindness. My son and I simply had a blast. Highly recommend this class for anyone from the beginner to the expert. Isis speaks to the artist in all of us. We are very grateful to her.
SUZANNE D.
What a great experience! I arrived to find that I was the only student signed up so ended up having a private conversation and tutorial. I have no formal art training so after a brief discussion about the history of Mexican art, Isis helped me choose charcoal portraiture for my single day 3 hour class. It was such an enjoyable time and I left inspired to get started creating at home. If you have more time in SMA I can imagine that the month long offerings would be amazing. Thank you!
ELLISON R.

"I am no artist and I am lucky if I can draw a stick figure. And so I am intimidated by artists like Isis and usually shy away from teachers who I feel are too perfect. But I was invited by my best friend to celebrate her birthday in San Miguel as a special occasion art class. And so I did, and like wow! Isis has this way of breaking down art into ways that are easy for me to understand and I surprised myself with a nice little watercolor portrait of the Mexican actress, Yalitza Aparicio. "
