We are thrilled with our (7 year old) Carina, our daughter's experience at Master Artist Mariano's art lessons. In just a short conversation with Mariano in our first meeting, I could feel the enthusiasm he has for art and for teaching art. He's not just teaching his students how to produce a piece of work, he teaches art history, a wide variety of techniques, and about all the tools of the trade. Mariano has a genuine passion for teaching art as he wishes to inspire a love for art in those he teaches. He has an ease and patience which allows students to feel encouraged and safe to challenge themselves with more advanced techniques. His passion for his craft has definitely inspired his students and we can see the impact it has had on our daughter as she is excited to share her work and everything she learns each week in his class. Thank you to Mariano for providing opportunities for young artists to explore their creativity and grow their love of art. |

I’ve been a student for little less than a year – however I’ve learnt so much in that time Attending structured art lessons with Master Artist Mariano. I’ve learnt all about values, shading, perspective, pigments, painting and drawing techniques, true color theory and how to mix pigments and colors. Mariano sits right next to me while I draw or paint instructing me step by step with various techniques and providing positive feedback on how to improve. Mariano is extremely knowledgeable and has lots of experience and is easy to learn with, did I mention he is also funny while being a gifted artist. Mariano has shown me a variety of excellent art materials and how to use them in many mediums – including quality watercolors, gouache, oil paints and other dry media. The importance of proper substrates and their qualities for paper, canvas and wood panels. I have also learnt a lot about art history in terms of how a particular famous artist worked with their paints, methods and techniques - most importantly Mariano articulates the science behind the techniques. Mariano has been creating artworks for over 50 years, as he passes down that knowledge to the next generation – he has been deemed by many as a “modern master” I’ve learnt on how to apply many techniques and the knowledge behind them in a variety of mediums in a very short time – learning from his experience and I have improved my art skills one hundred fold. It is a pure joy to learn and I recommend Mariano to any serious art student. Spencer Y. , Windsor April 17/2022
Every week, I look forward to taking art lessons with Mariano. He not only teaches me how to draw, but he also provides many useful art techniques used by renaissance artists for drawing and painting that makes an art piece come to life. Since early 2019 onward, as we began, he taught me in an interesting but efficient way, so that in a short amount of time, I was able to progress from almost no experience in art to being able to draw complicated still life and learn the process and techniques of painting. His Mona Lisa recreation painting reveals the passion he has for art. It is placed in his gallery of many paintings, which he uses to show the techniques to students like me. Not only is he extremely skilled and doing and teaching art, but he is also great at woodworking, since he makes most decorated frames for his own paintings. I'm lucky to have met such a great art teacher to help me improve my art skills, expand creativity, and help me understand the true meaning of art. I learned drawing from Mariano. Each time I went there, he taught me not only drawing but also other useful knowledge of art. He is very knowledgeable in various forms of art and teaches in a friendly and patient way.
