I believe these words to be true, and I try to live this every day at Blu Moon

Studio… both in doing my own creative work, and working with my art students

Many schools are cutting back on art programs, and it getting increasingly

difficult to get a good foundation in visual art . Many private art schools are

springing up, which offers young artists an  opportunity which might otherwise be lost

Blu Moon Studio offers classes in painting , drawing, and mixed media to students from age seven to adult.

Blu Moon Studio of Art’s owner and art instructor, Sheri Friedman , a professional artist, specializes

in Portfolio Preparation for Elementary and Middle School Art Magnet School auditions. She has a proven track

a proven record of success with a decade of experience. If you are looking for art classes in the Miami

area… look for Blu Moon! I will be offering a Summer Art Program… please stay tuned for details.

 

Great Art Schools in Miami

// October 13th, 2010 // No Comments » // art classes in miami

There are many great art schools for young, aspiring artists to choose from in Miami… D.A.S.H., New World School of the Arts,

and several other schools offer excellent programs in visual arts. Attending these art magnet programs offers young students a

head start in their art educations, and they will be well prepared long before they go on to study art in college or start a career

. These programs are also getting increasingly competitive, and a student must be well prepared to qualify for the auditions.

Many schools have significantly cut back on their art programs, which leaves many students at a disadvantage when trying to prepare art portfolios for magnet school auditions. At Blu Moon Studio, I specialize in preparing students for the art magnet auditions. I work collaboratively with the students to create the required pieces, and I supervise their sketchbooks. Along with these practical matters, I offer support and guidance through the

portfolio prep. process and have them do trial runs of the audition exercises. I have found these preparation months to be very rewarding

and the students form a very strong bond with each other as they work together on their goals. I highly recommend that any student aspiring for these auditions

take additional classes, whether at Blu Moon or another choice. I offer my Portfolio Prep. classes for highschool and college on Tuesday,

Thursday, and Saturday, and Port. Prep. for middle school on Tuesday. Please check my schedule for details… don’t delay …
