Our Syllabus, Your Child

All the profits from our Children’s Art Classes go towards our community projects, providing the joy of art to those that need it most.

The Little Art School 12 year syllabus is unique. Over many years we have designed a highly structured course. Our course delivers one continuous, highly structured progression of learning.

The Little Art School drawing and painting course will take your child from learning to draw basic shapes and use various art media (eg watercolour and pastel) from age 6, right through to graduating with us after Level 6, when our students are completing complex portraits in oils.

The aim of the syllabus is to set a high quality of experience for every student while they learn, with a structured warm-up, set learning objectives in each lesson and two key outcomes….

We nurture the development of a lifelong skill; the ability to draw and paint confidently.

We build self-esteem – every child should leave with increased confidence knowing that they have developed their skills, nurtured in an encouraging environment.

Our Studios

We currently have two studios in Ayrshire: Ayr and Kilmarnock. Both studios have classes after school most days and weekends.

Both studios are fully equipped with materials we have tried and tested over the years to compliment our course. The course is designed to give our students confidence in experimenting with lots of different mediums. We strive to make our studios a nurturing, welcoming space.
