"I
cannot express how lucky we feel to have found your
school. You had a wonderful vision and the students and
teachers are merely a testament to that. Thank you so
very much"
~Meg LaBarbara (Samantha's Mom)
"I
just wanted to inform you that Tara was accepted to
Laguardia and Frank Sinatra High Schools. She was very
excited to be accepted. She also received a full
scholarship to a Private School in our neighborhood....
She is going to attend the private school. Thanks
so much to giving her the opportunity to excel....

This program was designed by Polina Osnachuk, an experienced and talented teacher and artist. The program is based on the time-tested methods developed by the Russian schools for artistically gifted children, and adapted for special needs of American schools and colleges. Students accomplish a series of assignments in a specific progression, from the easier to the more complex ones.
In the course of the program, children will acquire a strong foundation in Drawing, Painting, Sculpture and Composition. A multi-media approach will help them gain confidence with varied materials, including oil and acrylic paints, water-color, pencil, charcoal and pastels, clay and plastiline.They will work from life and from imagination. Subject matter includes still life, portrait and clothed figure. The atmosphere is informal, but serious. We also help with portfolio preparation.
