Digital Art Classes for Kids & Teens in Fiji
Digital art, on top of real drawing skill
A tablet does not make a child a better artist, it makes a mediocre drawing faster to produce. So this class runs the fundamentals and the software together: construction and value on one side, layers, brushes and colour management on the other. What children want to make — characters, scenes, their own comics — is the vehicle for both.

Digital art, on top of real drawing skill
We will not spend the hour teaching menus. Software changes and the skill underneath does not, so roughly half of every class is drawing and half is doing it digitally. Children arriving with no traditional drawing experience are usually asked to take the pencil class alongside, and we will say so when you enquire.
Indo-Fijian families descend from the girmitiyas, indentured workers brought to Fiji between 1879 and 1916, and one tradition survived the crossing almost intact: the Ramayan mandali, groups singing Tulsidas’s Ramcharitmanas together week after week. Children here often grow up hearing the Ramayana sung in Fiji Hindi, which makes the Ramayana course an unusually natural place to start.

Batch timings for Fiji
Live classes on FJT, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Fiji is six and a half hours ahead of India, so a weekday 4:30 to 6:00 PM class in Suva or Nadi is the Indian mid-morning, and Saturday afternoon batches land in the Indian early morning. We do not offer Fiji a Saturday morning slot, because it would fall in the middle of the Indian night.
What your child walks away able to do
Confident layer and brush workflow
Original characters with consistent design

Arts & Painting runs in person at our arts studio in Jayanagar, Bengaluru, and, like every class of ours, at our HSR Layout centre, 243, 16th Main Road, Sector 3, HSR Layout, Bengaluru 560102. Both use the same mentors and the same curriculum as the online batches. Families outside Bengaluru take the online batches, which cover the identical curriculum.
Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us about your child
Call or WhatsApp us and say where your child is starting from. For digital art classes for kids & teens that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to what they can already do.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with your child for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class of ours for them.
3. Pick a slot that survives the school week
We place your child in a batch built for FJT. Fiji is six and a half hours ahead of India, so a weekday 4:30 to 6:00 PM class in Suva or Nadi is the Indian mid-morning, and Saturday afternoon batches land in the Indian early morning.
“Timezone was our biggest worry. Smriti Samskara made it effortless, the Mahabharata class fits perfectly into our London evenings, and the storytelling quality is simply exceptional.”
Digital Art Classes for Kids & Teens in Fiji, FAQs
Ideally alongside. A tablet accelerates whatever skill is already there and cannot substitute for it, so about half of every class is drawing fundamentals. Children with no pencil experience are usually advised to take the drawing class in parallel.
