Amanda Lee Jones Art Studio

Classical atelier-style art school in North Loop

Amanda Lee Jones Art Studio operates from W St John's Ave in North Austin (78752), teaching kids and teens in a French "palestra" atelier format — classical European art pedagogy focused on real technique rather than kids' crafts. Instruction is individualized, more like apprenticeship than classroom.

Drawing, oil painting, sculpture for ages 8-18

Classical curriculum with individualized pacing. Classes include:
- Drawing fundamentals (graphite, charcoal, perspective)
- Oil painting (atelier methods, color theory)
- Sculpture
- Weekly ongoing classes
- Workshops and intensives
- Free trial class for new students

Experience

Real technique training rather than "fun crafts" — kids here actually learn to draw and paint using classical methods that transfer to serious art study. A good fit for North Austin / Hyde Park / North Loop families with older kids (8+) serious about developing real art skills.
