About Professional Art Training & Mentorship

Why I Do This

Art's always felt like home to me, not just a pass-time. If you see yourself as more than a weekend painter and want to turn your art into something bigger, this is for you. Banni, let’s get serious about your talent.

Who Should Join

Hobbyists wanting to go pro
Advanced artists looking for that next push
Anyone dreaming of becoming a certified art teacher
Adults craving a proper, structured art environment

What You Get Here

I don’t just teach - I mentor. My approach is all about helping you find your own voice, not just copy mine. We’ll dig into:

Core drawing, sketching, and shading
Hands-on work with oils, acrylics, watercolors, and mixed media
Figuring out your personal style (not just technique)
Artist portfolio coaching to get your work gallery-ready

Beyond Just Classes

My academy is your stage. I push for real exposure - not just in-house shows, but also big ones like Chitra Santhe, Dubai, and Nepal. We prep together for competitions, and many of my students have bagged national and international awards.

If teaching is your thing, our art educator certification course is open for folks over 23. Many who finish up end up with us or in our wider network - job guarantee (with some conditions, of course).

Studio Space

Our Malleshwaram studio is adults-only - a focused, real art environment. No distractions, just you, your work, and direct mentorship from me.

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.
