The entire experience with Karen Porter has been magical. I started painting lessons less than a year ago and have progressed to planning my very first show in April! Dreams really do come true and I cannot recommend this studio enough. I have grown into a confident artist and made a great friend along the way.

I’ve been taking classes with Karen for several months. She’s created a wonderful atmosphere for students to feel welcome and brave to just jump in and try something new. I never knew I enjoyed painting until trying it out recently. I’m excited to explore what else might be enjoyable! Highly recommend Karen and her classes.

My grandson attends art classes at Central Art and he has learned so much on how to harness his creativity and to use the skills to put his imagination into a work of art. I highly recommend for everyone of all ages.

Drawing and Water Color classes with Karen porter at art lofts is a must (and a joy) for aspiring artists. Karen gives great direction but never interrupts what the newer artist is trying to express. She makes sure there’s room for great conversation and a few laughs too. (My kids had her instruction 1st. I enjoyed their experience so much, I started going for myself.)
