About More from Our Academy
What you see here is more than just finished canvases; it is a glimpse into a mentorship process that prepares students for actual exhibitions, not just classroom exercises. Every student, whether they are four or forty, receives guidance that pushes them toward professional platforms like the Chitrakar International Art Exhibition. We don't just teach you how to draw; we help you find the confidence to display your work in public galleries.
Art is a journey, and our academy is designed to support you at every stage, from your first wobbly line to complex oil portraits. We operate studios across Bangalore—from Vijayanagar and Malleshwaram to Horamavu and Mathikere—creating accessible spaces where you can disconnect from daily stress.
Our curriculum is structured but flexible. For children, we focus on foundational skills like pencil shading, pastels, and watercolors, which are essential for developing fine motor skills and creative expression. For our adult learners and hobbyists, we offer professional mentorship, focusing on advanced techniques like semi-realistic portraiture and oil on canvas.
One thing that sets us apart is our emphasis on 'real-world' application. We don't believe art should stay hidden in a sketchbook. We actively coach students to participate in our 'Chitrakar' competition, organize local exhibitions, and help advanced learners build portfolios for galleries.
Whether you join us for a weekend pottery session to get your hands dirty or enroll in our long-term certification courses, you are joining a community. Banni, let’s discover the artist within you.
