## About Art & Pottery Classes

### Why I Teach Art & Pottery

Art isn’t just about pretty pictures – it’s how I help kids and adults open up, mess around, and sometimes surprise themselves. I want my classes to be that space where you can just try, fail, laugh and get better, whether you’re five or fifty. 

### What You’ll Learn

- Drawing and sketching workshops for all levels, starting from basic lines and shapes to more advanced stuff like shading and perspective.
- Painting with acrylics, watercolors, and oils. You can jump in at any stage, I’ll guide you through mixing colors, brushwork and all that jazz. 
- Beginner pottery lessons and hand-building clay techniques in our Bangalore studio. You’ll get your hands dirty spinning the wheel or shaping clay with just your fingers.

### Who Can Join

- Kids (from age 3.5) – we keep it playful so they actually want to come back!
- Adults and hobbyists – no pressure, just a chill way to unwind after work.
- Aspiring professionals – if you’re serious, I help with portfolio development for artists and prep you for competitions.

### How We Run Things

- In-person at our studios in Bengaluru (Banni, let’s get creative!). The vibe here is casual, not intimidating.
- Live online classes with flexible batches, so you can join from home without missing out.

### More Than Just Classes

I don’t want you to just learn – I want you to show off! Students get real mentorship, chances to join art shows, and build portfolios you’ll actually use. Sometimes things get messy, sometimes we lose track, but in the end, everyone learns something new.

## Meet your expert

[NS Kumbar Art Academy](https://mytribe.in/nskumbarartacademy)

### My story

Namaste, NS Kumbar here. Art has been my heartbeat from the start. My mom taught me, now I get called 'sir' by so many kids and grown-ups. It all began with one studio, now we’re all over Bangalore. Awards are nice, but watching a shy kid grow into an artist showing work in Dubai? That’s the real win. Our journey is just a big, messy, colourful painting – and everyone’s invited.

### My work

- **All kinds of art classes**: Drawing, painting, shading plus pottery studio Bangalore. We teach basics to advanced, any age.
- **Fun workshops & camps**: Rakhi making workshop, candle making, decoupage classes, wall murals, and summer camps for all.
- **Showcase your art**: We run Chitrakar art competition - students of any age can exhibit and win, even internationally.
- **Learn from artists**: Our team is full of pros. Advanced learners and future teachers get extra guidance at Malleshwaram.
- **Flexible learning**: Join online or in studio. Free demo class if you want to try before you join.
