About

Paint Away Art Studio offers weekly art classes for kids and adults that include drawing, painting, and mixed media. The program also offers Paint & Sip parties, wine glass painting parties, birthday parties for kids with step-by-step painting lessons, and face painting for events. Kids can join Kids Art (K–5th), Middle School Art (6th–8th), and High School Art (9th–12th) classes, and there is a weekly adult painting class where the instructor paints alongside students using the same reference photo.

• Ages: Kindergarten–12th grade and adults
• Schedule: Weekly kids and teen classes on Mondays and Wednesdays; weekly adult painting class on Fridays 3:00–5:00pm
• Price: $20 per session for the weekly adult painting class, with an optional $5 per session to use the instructor’s paints and brushes

The instructor, Rocky Lawrence, teaches visual art to homeschool, public, charter, and private school students, with classes ranging from children’s beginner classes to adult advanced painting classes. The instructor is experienced, guides students through a variety of artistic techniques and mediums, and is continuing their own education to learn more advanced techniques and styles. Paint Away Art Studio states that art classes are open to all kids in K–12th grade and that small class sizes are offered. For the adult painting class, participants bring their own paints and brushes, while an 11x14 or 16x24 stretched canvas is provided at no extra charge, and payment can be made with cash, card, Cash App, or Venmo on the first day.

Paint Away Art Studio states that it is passionate about fostering creativity in artists of all ages, believes art should be fun, accessible, and for everyone, and has a mission to show kids they can use art as a healthy and safe outlet to express themselves. The program notes that homeschooling families using a charter can use their annual allotment to pay for art classes, that most local charter schools will either pay or reimburse for attendance, and that Paint Away can work toward becoming an approved vendor for charter schools. Paint Away Art Studio accepts donations of various household items and art supplies for budding artists and notes that donations of many household items can be used for art. The studio also plans to be at the Options For Education Expo on May 4th, 2025, at the Boys and Girls Club in Grants Pass, and at the Frog O’ Faire Kids Festival on June 7, 2025, at Riverside Park in Grants Pass.
