My 3 children have had the pleasure of attending several of Gina's Art classes. I was impressed with the quality of the projects the kids came home with and the kids had so much fun! Gina has lots of patience and offers the kids a friendly supportive environment for them to learn and gain confidence. Sign the kids up-they will thank you!!

Gina came highly recommended to me 2 years ago and now I don't hesitate to recommend her to anyone (adult &/or child) who wants to be to learn about art in a relaxed, fun, inspiring environment! My daughter has attended several sessions with Gina now, and each time I have been WOW-ed by the work she brings home! Furthermore, she always learns a little bit about different artists and she experiments with a variety of mediums. Gina is not only a gifted art teacher, but also she is a nurturing, encouraging person whose impact on my daughter has been lasting! Everyone should experience at least one art session with the lovely, talented Gina!

I am thrilled with my first painting class with Gina at Swirl Visual Arts. My 6 year old daughter Charlotte has been taking art classes with Gina for about a year, and she LOVES Gina and the classes. As a full time Mom and a part time wanna-be artist I have been a wee bit jealous of how much fun she has and all the amazing creations she brings home. I jokingly asked Gina if she ever teaches classes to adults and when she said yes, I knew I had found what I was looking for.
I had my first private class this morning and it was wonderful! I feel so inspired and excited to paint, paint, paint! Bringing home a finished painting after 2 hours was very cool. Gina is fun, inspiring and creative and the environment in her class is very supportive and relaxed. I can't wait to go again, and bring some friends to share the experience with. Gina makes you believe you can paint and with her gentle guidance you can.

I enjoyed the art video and the children look like they are really having fun!!
Small classes are good!! The children can learn better in smaller settings.
