Meet The Founder

Founder Shri

Shri is a passionate artist and has been creating artworks for the past 25 years. She has worked with various mediums such as clay, glass, metal, acrylic, oil, water paints etc. over the years. She has also commissioned large pieces of work for clients.

She is widely experienced in the Montessori method of teaching and has been fortunate to have spent time teaching and moulding young children for several years.

She has combined her passion for teaching and art, to create My Art Class. Helping kids and adults achieve immense joy through art and to unleash their creative mind.

Note from the founder

Each program is broadly based on seasons, important events and celebrations. Within each season we incorporate the skills required for every program. Each year group will be closely observed and will be encouraged according to the challenges they can take on. We keep in mind that art is a form of enjoyment and children should be self motivated to attend the classes and create wonderful pieces of art, something that they are proud of and which speaks their mind.

Our aim is to provide different avenues to exhibit the work of our young artists throughout the year.

In our complex world surrounded by social media we often find ourselves lonely and secluded. Either we are forced to be loud and bold or we choose to be quiet and immerse ourselves into our phones. But quiet minds have louder voices, sometimes art helps to express these louder voices and it comes out as one of the most unique and expressive pieces of art.

The world around us is very beautiful but I often find people not looking around themselves and too caught up in social media. Encouraging young minds to be more observant will create a sense of curiosity in them and this can help open up their minds and think out of the box. Art is an expression and I want to encourage everyone to express their mind in whichever form they choose. My aim to help guide young minds and find their unique beat in the music called Life.
