Hello.

I’m Melissa, the owner, creator, and educator of Mama Miss Art Studio. I love inspiring art experiences in children and seeing their imagination and art skills flourish in my classes.

My art class philosophy is that everyone is an artist, and that, “there are no mistakes in art”. As a homeschool art educator and private art educator I allow my students to learn in a way that fills their needs -through the process. There is no wrong or right way in my classes. We start class with learning about the artist through an artist study, next I demo the materials and the technique, then the students dive in and start CREATING their own masterpieces! Process art allows for my classes to be a non-stressful environment, with loads of positive energy and the space to let my students creativity flow freely.

Mama Miss Art Studio classes are a special place in the art community for kids of all ages to explore, create, imagine and grow their love of art.
