I love Tinker! I didn’t get into art until I was an adult and I’ve never felt awkward or uncomfortable as a novice at Tinker. I’ve tried many of the classes for adults at this point: Intro to Acrylics, Intro to Oils, Community Paint, and Life Drawing. All are excellent and so welcoming! Grey and Erica are fantastic teachers, always motivating and providing constructive yet positive feedback. I’ve become a painter because of Tinker and highly recommend it to anyone, regardless of skill level, if you have an interest.
