Online Art Classes for Kids in Kolkata
Art classes that teach technique and India’s own traditions
Most children’s art classes are one of two things: a craft hour where everyone makes the same thing, or a Western fundamentals course that treats Indian art as a decorative afterthought. We teach both halves properly. Observation, line, proportion and colour as real technique, and Warli, Madhubani, Rangoli and Kalamkari as real disciplines with their own rules.

Art classes that teach technique and India’s own traditions
The test of an art class is whether a child improves at drawing, not whether they come away with something fridge-worthy. Mentors work on grip, proportion and observation from the first class, and because batches are small they can see each child’s page on screen and correct it while the pencil is still moving.
Kolkata parents are, in our experience, the most likely to arrive already reading the epics to their children at home and looking for someone to take the questions further than they can. That is a good starting point and a demanding one, and the discussion-heavy classes — Mahabharata, moral stories — tend to suit these batches best.

Batch timings for Kolkata
Live classes on IST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 5:30 to 8:00 PM IST and weekend mornings. Because Kolkata is slightly east, an earlier evening slot often suits families better, and we can arrange it.
Salt Lake, New Town, Ballygunge, Behala and Howrah are where most of our Kolkata families are. We schedule around the Durga Puja weeks rather than running classes into them.
What your child walks away able to do

Confident use of pencil, pastel, poster colour and watercolour

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. If Kolkata is within a sensible drive, tell us and we will send the current offline batch timings.
Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us about your child
Call or WhatsApp us and say where your child is starting from. For online art classes for kids 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 IST. Weekday 5:30 to 8:00 PM IST and weekend mornings.
“My daughter used to freeze on stage. After a few months of public speaking classes, she confidently delivered a speech at her school assembly. The mentors are patient and truly gifted.”

Especially then. Almost every child who says that has never been taught to observe, and observation is a skill rather than a gift. The change in the first month is the thing parents write to us about most.
