Georgie Rigby Teaching Art

Be Inspired, Encouraged and Entertained!

Children in Franklin and Nashville will grasp an understanding of the fundamental elements of art eg. Composition, proportion, scale, perspective, color theory, light and form, providing a solid foundation from which to flourish.

Inspired by the work of artists past and present, our art classes and art workshops explore a multitude of mixed media activities using high quality materials including pencils, pastels, charcoal, acrylics, collage, pen and ink and many more.

Our classes are wonderful for those who simply love art, and an additional support for those working on scholarships or portfolios.

We look forward to enriching your child’s artistic journey!

What Parents are saying

A fun place to learn…

I’m really thankful we found Georgie, my daughter has found her art group stimulating & a fun place to learn new techniques she had never tried before. Georgie teaches the kids the foundations of how to produce and be inspired by different techniques to draw, paint and create her very own piece; not something the whole group has to produce to look identical.

Positive and gentle guidance…

Georgie’s workshops are truly inspirational. My daughter, Olivia, loves every minute of her art class and and she doesn’t want it to end. I can’t recommend Georgie enough. Georgie’s positive and gentle guidance, encouragement and confidence in her students abilities brings out the best in the kids and once given the tools for their art discovery journey, the transformation is remarkable.

Ree M

Expands her horizons…

My daughter Martha loves Georgie’s classes. And I love that she learns so many different and interesting things. It definitely expands her horizons – and we have been known to try out the new techniques as a family too. Thank you Georgie!

Loved every minute…

Our son and daughter have loved every minute of Georgie’s workshops and have flourished in their artistic endeavours as a result. In fact, our daughter came home from school with an “Outstanding Achievement Award” for a picture she painted. Both children looked forward to the sessions, learned a huge amount and loved spending time with Georgie.

We appreciate Georgie’s kindness and patience…

She has time and again gone the extra mile beyond the classroom to help advise and support our children’s creative development. She is very professional. Her lessons are not just fun and interesting, but her systematic approach helps lay a firm foundation for children. Her hard work and attention to details make her both a great artist and great teacher. Thank you so much
