At Dojo Academy, we aim to provide a high caliber of professional education in drawing and painting, based on the methods of the French academic studios in the 19th century. Through the training of the eye and a rigorous direct study of nature guided by master instructors, students can expect to achieve an expertise of technique which we believe is the keystone to engendering one’s artistic individual identity. We hope that the artists we teach will leave with peak artistic skills and judgment ready to work in a wide range of creative environments including but not limited to fine art, illustration, design, animation and education.
