" If you think you can't paint, think again. It took me quite awhile before I got up the nerve to try a class, can't draw a straight line let alone think I could paint. I was so surprised to find out I could and you can to.I am now trying all the different classes offered and loving it having fun not to mention just how relaxing it is. Theresa makes the class with her easy going method, great personality and a great sense of humour. Try one class and you'll be hooked.Hope to see you there. "

"My daughter and I attended the open studio the other night and loved it!! We will be regulars. We really appreciated the guidance with our work as well as the respect for our personal techniques and visions. Teresa maintains a very fun atmosphere and the time went by so fast!"
"The adult day drop in classes are amazing. Its a great way to learn and no other studio offers such a program". Lisa HAlpern
"My son has been dropping in at Grasby for the last 8 months and we consider it one of the best "finds" since we moved to Calgary. The environment is relaxed, supportive and flexible - he is able to work on projects he chooses, at his own pace, and with as little or as much coaching as he'd like. His confidence and his skills have grown immensely, a huge thank you to Theresa and her crew!" Brent Layden
"It is such a joy to work closely with people from all walks of life and all ages.

"I couldn't imagine that I could draw anything more detailed than my happy stick figures. Working with Teresa is amazing, going to the studio has been one of the highlights of my week this fall. I highly recommend exploring your inner artist at this studio and learning all the delightful new ways you can express yourself. This studio is the best and anyone, at any level will be delighted with what they can create. Just drop in and get started!"

"Thank you Grasby Art Studio for a wonderful week of learning for my 15 year old daughter. She now has a solid foundation of the skills needed to paint a picture from a blank canvas to completion. She brought home a beautiful picture she was very proud of. It'already hanging on our wall. This was our first experience at this studio and I am so impressed with the skill level of the staff, the feedback given to the kids, the opportunity to take the time to keep trying again and again, the generous access to supplies and the great positive energy that filled the room every time Iwas there. We both can't wait to go back and continue learning.....👩🏻🎨"

"This art studio is a great choice for anyone who wants to develop their artistic abilities. Theresa Grasby is a gifted teacher with an up beat personality who can turn any one into an artist! Each student gets individual instruction, guidance and feedback. This is the best way to learn. My 12 year old son has been attending the Child's studio for the past 4 years and now my 8 year old son is also attending. Their rapid artistic development is astonishing. They can't wait to go to art class each week. I felt so inspired each time visiting the studio that I finally signed up for the "Action Art" workshop and now I am attending the art studio as well. We had great experiences with the summer camps too! I highly recommend Grasby Art Studio." Monique Dame

"This is the best place; I look forward to class each week! Teresa is a fabulous teacher [and very patient :-D ]. Before I joined I couldn't paint myself out of a wet paper bag. Now, when I bring home or display my art, I get fabulous compliments on it. Each and every time I give the kudos to the instructor -- I have learned a ton from her. My daughter and I have been going for years -- we love it and encourage everyone to come check it out. You won't be disappointed .... Keep up the great work Grasby Art Studio!!"

" As a beginner painter I am so appreciative of the time and patience I've experienced at Grasby Art Studio. I have thoroughly enjoyed both the open studio and the formal lessons I have taken. Theresa Grasby and her staff are always encouraging and have helped me create art that I never imagined I could. My confidence grows with each finished piece and I love the welcoming atmosphere of the studio. I would highly recommend Grasby Art to EVERYONE. "

"Just finished my first painting at the studio. Amy and Teresa found the artist in me! What a great environment full of positive encouragement and constructive feedback. The other patrons can be just as helpful as the instructors. Very much looking forward to starting my next project."
