Online Painting Classes for Kids in Dubai
Painting classes where colour is taught as a craft
Painting is where most children’s art goes wrong, because nobody teaches them what colour actually does. They are handed a set and told to fill in. This class starts at the wheel: what mixes, what turns muddy, why a wash behaves differently from a flat fill, and how to layer without losing the drawing underneath.

Painting classes where colour is taught as a craft
Painting is not colouring in a finished outline. We spend the first weeks on the drawing beneath the paint, because a well-painted bad drawing is still a bad drawing. Children who arrive able to fill in neatly usually find this the hardest and most useful adjustment.
Dubai is an hour and a half behind India and has one of the largest concentrated Indian communities anywhere in the world, so most families here already have plenty of cultural life. What they usually want from us is instruction — correct pronunciation, actual meaning, structured progress — rather than exposure.
Colour mixing taught properly, including what goes muddy and why
Four media compared: crayon, oil pastel, poster colour, watercolour
Wash, wet-on-wet and layering technique, not flat filling
The drawing under the paint taken seriously first
Traditional Indian palettes alongside the standard wheel
Finished paintings, not exercises, from the first term
Batch timings for Dubai
Live classes on GST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 5:00 to 7:30 PM GST works comfortably for both sides, and Friday and Saturday batches fit the UAE weekend rather than the Indian one, which matters and is often got wrong.
Families join from Bur Dubai, Karama, Al Barsha, Discovery Gardens and Dubai Silicon Oasis, and a fair number attend Indian curriculum schools where Sanskrit is offered but not taught in depth.
What your child walks away able to do
Mixing an intended colour deliberately rather than by luck
Controlled watercolour washes and clean layering
A sense of which medium suits which subject
Completed paintings the child is genuinely pleased with
Online Painting Classes for Kids, module by module
What a year of online painting classes for kids actually covers, in the order we teach it.
The Wheel, For Real
Primaries, secondaries, complements, and the specific mixes that turn to mud. Learned by making the mistakes on purpose.
Four Media
Crayon, oil pastel, poster colour and watercolour, the same subject in each, so the difference is obvious.
The Drawing Underneath
Light construction lines and composition before any paint touches the page.
Wash and Layer
Wet-on-wet, graded washes, drying time and building depth without losing the drawing.
Indian Palettes
The earth reds, indigos and ochres of folk painting, and why those pigments were the ones available.
Finished Work
Complete paintings, planned and carried through, mounted for the family showcase.

Arts & Painting is the one class we teach in person as well as online. Offline batches run at our arts studio in Jayanagar, Bengaluru, with 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 online painting classes for kids that matters — the mentor pitches the trial to what they can already do.
2. Free trial with 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 GST. Weekday 5:00 to 7:30 PM GST works comfortably for both sides, and Friday and Saturday batches fit the UAE weekend rather than the Indian one, which matters and is often got wrong..
“The Ramayana classes are the highlight of my daughter’s week. She now teaches us the values she learns. As NRI parents in Dubai, this connection to our culture is priceless.”
Online Painting Classes for Kids in Dubai, FAQs
For the trial, whatever you already own. After that a basic poster colour set and a small watercolour box cover the first two terms; we send the exact list and there is no need to buy expensive materials for a child who is still learning to mix.
