In-Person Art Classes or Workshops
Leaning in person is a traditional process in which the learning environment is created within the physical walls of a classroom or studio environment, where the instructor and learner are physically present together. It has the following advantages of formal learning.
- It may employ any type of presentation, such as visual, tactical, auditory, etc.
- It promotes interaction or networking among the learners or participants.
- Interactions between participants, instructors, and other participants are in real-time.
- It fosters a relationship between the instructor and the learner, which helps fulfill a mentor-mentee-type relationship.

Self-Directed or Open Studio Format
Weekly classes in an open studio format or independent study are perfect for those who want feedback, inspiration, or the vitality of working with other creative individuals. The instructor will guide you in finding your visual voice, achieving your artistic vision, or cultivating creativity. Informal learning has the following advantages.
Observational learning occurs when instructors demonstrate their approach, craft, or tools.
Experimentation or play is a form of learning. Adults may learn visual art skills by experimentation or when the instructor allows them to play.
Incidental learning occurs partly as a product of active involvement.
Social Learning is a type of social behavior that proposes new skills that can be acquired by observing and imitating others in a social situation. This learning requires a social model like other learners, peers, or instructors.
