Hunakai Studio offers curriculum-based visual arts classes for all ages and all skill levels. Our classes cap at eight students as all instruction is individualized for the student. We offer a safe, nurturing environment to ensure every student will be successful. Hunakai students come from a broad cultural spectrum.
All our teachers are working, exhibiting artists and most come from the public schools. We offer drawing, oils and acrylics, watercolors, pastels, ceramics, multi-media, steampunk, photoshop and digital media. We are always open to new classes.
Our tuitions are for two months at a time, but classes run from September through June. We run workshops throughout the summer months for the standards and some different pursuits.
"Every person associated with Hunakai Studio brings the richness of a tradition that binds one to the past and points with hope to the future."
At Martin Fine Art Classes we will take anybody and teach them the essential skills necessary to be able to draw and paint. We are giving students one on one instruction in the essential areas, as opposed to coming in and starting off wherever they may be and just receiving tips on how to make their drawing and painting better. We teach all age groups, starting from as young as 4 to 90-year-old. The fundamentals are the same for everybody. We show the 4-year-olds how to see shapes, how to compare shapes, how to develop, build a drawing and not copy it. We guide the older children, teens, and adults in the same approach. They learn how to sketch, how to look at things in terms of height and width. After that, we teach them various strategies for correcting the drawings.
