It’s how you see things, how you talk without words. Our place is full of wild ideas - little kids mixing colors, teens sketching dreams for college, adults trying Tanjore painting after ages. Some folks need a bit more help, and we’re right there. Watching someone get lost in their own creation? That’s the magic we live for. This isn’t just a class. It’s a wild, messy, creative ride. ### My work - **All Kinds of Art Classes**: Sensory art for toddlers, visual art for kids and teens, Tanjore painting, macrame, sketching, and portfolio prep for design colleges. - **How We Do It**: We mix culture, skill, and fun. One day it’s Saura tribal art, next it’s Monet. Classes are always hands-on and expressive. - **Art for Everyone**: Kids, teens, adults, special needs - beginners or hobbyists, we guide you step-by-step. No one’s left out. - **Messy Play, Smart Play**: For little ones, we let them get messy with clay and paint. It’s fun and helps their brains grow. ## More services from BrainArt Studio - [Adult Art & Craft Workshops](https://mytribe.in/brainart.co/adult-art-craft-workshops) · ₹800-1,500 per workshop (estimate) - [NIOS Art Curriculum Tutoring](https://mytribe.in/brainart.co/nios-art-curriculum-tutoring) · ₹2,200-2,500 per month (estimate) - [Kids' Art & Craft Classes](https://mytribe.in/brainart.co/kids-art-craft-classes) · ₹2,000-2,600 per month (estimate) - [Inclusive Art Classes for Special Needs](https://mytribe.in/brainart.co/inclusive-art-classes-for-special-needs) · ₹2,200-3,800 per month (estimate) ## Experts similar to BrainArt Studio on mytribe - [Art Classes for Kids & Teens by Art Beat](https://mytribe.in/art-beat/art-classes-for-kids-teens) · ₹3,500-5,500 per month (estimate) · Art Beat - [Children's Art & Craft Classes by Sai Home Studio](https://mytribe.in/saihomestudio_official/children-s-art-craft-classes) · ₹1,800-2,800 per month (estimate) · Sai Home Studio - [Professional Art Training by RangSangam Art School](https://mytribe.in/rangsangam/professional-art-training) · ₹9-23K per course (estimate) · RangSangam Art School - [Professional Art Training & Mentorship by NS Kumbar Art Academy](https://mytribe.in/nskumbarartacademy/professional-art-training-mentorship) · ₹3.2-10.5K per month (estimate) · Ns kumbar Art Academy - Mathikere - [Drawing & Sketching Classes by Shades Creative Learning](https://mytribe.in/shadescreativelearning/drawing-sketching-classes) · ₹500-1,800 per session (estimate) · Shades Creative Learning - [Drawing & Sketching Classes by Art Voyage](https://mytribe.in/artvoyage.in/drawing-sketching-classes) · ₹2,200-3,800 per month (estimate) · Art Voyage - [Art Classes for Children by KD School of Arts](https://mytribe.in/kd_school_of_art/art-classes-for-children) · ₹1,600-3,200 per month (estimate) · Sona Vistaas Apartment - [Arts & Crafts Classes by Butterfly Talent Academy](https://mytribe.in/butterflytalentacademy/arts-crafts-classes) · ₹1,600-2,800 per month (estimate) · Butterfly Talent Academy (BTA) Online & Offline Class for Art / Music / Dance / Fitness and Yoga - [Art Classes by Jeeva Kumari](https://mytribe.in/jeevasri12/art-classes) · ₹1,800-4,500 per month (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Fashion Design & Entrepreneurship Course by Riya By Preethi Raj](https://mytribe.in/riya-by-preethi-raj/fashion-design-entrepreneurship-course) · ₹45-68K per course (estimate) · Riya by Preethi Raj - [Sketching & Drawing Courses by Pencil and Chai](https://mytribe.in/pencilandchai/sketching-drawing-courses) · ₹10-12.5K per course (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Children's Art Classes by Fine Arts Gurukul](https://mytribe.in/fineartsgurukul/childrens-art-classes) · ₹2,800-4,000 per month (estimate) · Fine Arts Gurukul ## Book To book BrainArt Studio, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Design%20College%20Portfolio%20Preparation%20by%20BrainArt%20Studio.)
