The Palette Art Studio was founded in Cheshire, Connecticut by artist and teacher Natasha Piskunova in 1997. The studio employs both innovative and traditional teaching methodology. Students are systematically introduced to the fundamental concepts and skills of painting and drawing. They learn to understand and manipulate structure, form, and color, utilizing a broad range of mediums and techniques. At the same time, personal artistic expression and growth are encouraged, and students enjoy the process of creation. Teaching methods are individualized and flexible and therefore students ranging in age from five years to adulthood thrive in this dynamic and exciting setting.
