Netra Art Studios states that it offers small classes and individual attention, with all art supplies provided by the studio. Kids’ classes for ages 5–11 are described as a creative playground with small, friendly classes, while teen classes for ages 12–18 are described as a place to experiment with different mediums and develop a personal style, and adult classes are described as a way to relax and rediscover creativity in a warm, welcoming studio environment. The studio’s mission notes that classes cover multiple artistic mediums and that students are introduced to color, light, form, line, composition, and other core concepts of drawing and painting, with daytime and evening classes offered.
Winter and Summer Art Camps are described as packed with creativity, color, and hands-on fun, using painting, drawing, and clay, with a focus on art fundamentals in a relaxed, encouraging environment, small class sizes, and all supplies provided; each day of camp includes a new project, new skills, and time to experiment and play. Art parties are offered for children’s birthdays, adult get-togethers, and special milestones, with instructors guiding guests step-by-step through a project, all supplies provided (including paints, brushes, and canvases), and each guest leaving with their own one-of-a-kind masterpiece; at one painting party, the studio provided some snacks and drinks while the family brought pizza and cupcakes.
Netra Art Studios is led by owner and contact person Deepa Menon. The studio is described as trusted across the Bay Area, and its credentials and awards include being a 2015 Award Recipient Thumbtack Best of 2016, a Thumbtack 2016 Reward Recipient, “People Love Us on Yelp,” and being voted #1 in the Bay Area for in-studio instruction in Drawing and Painting. Testimonials from parents and students describe Deepa as knowledgeable in arts, very friendly, accommodating, creative, encouraging, kind, patient, detail-oriented, and dedicated, and mention that she focuses individually on each student, teaches new techniques and styles, and creates a friendly environment where students often choose to stay longer and look forward to classes and performances.
