Sketching Classes for Kids & Teens in Banashankari, Bangalore
Pencil sketching for children who want to get serious
By eleven or twelve, a child who likes drawing usually wants something the general art class does not give them: proper shading, faces that look like people, hands that are not hidden behind backs. This is that class. Graphite grades, value structure, portrait construction and perspective, taught at the pace of someone who intends to be good.

Pencil sketching for children who want to get serious
This is not the class for a child who draws occasionally and enjoys it. It is for the one filling sketchbooks and getting frustrated at the same plateau, usually faces and hands. Expect homework, expect weeks on value studies, and expect a visible change in about two months.
Graphite grades and value structure taught properly
Portrait construction, so faces stop being guesswork
Hands, feet and drapery, the things children avoid
Perspective applied to real interiors and streets
Weekly homework with genuine critique, not praise
Portfolio guidance for art-school or competition entry
Batch timings for Banashankari
Live classes on IST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.

What your child walks away able to do

Full value range and convincing form
Drawing hands and drapery without avoidance

What a year of sketching classes for kids & teens actually covers, in the order we teach it.
Pencils and Value
H through 8B, and building a full value scale before drawing anything with it.
Form Under Light
Spheres, cylinders, drapery. Weeks of it, because everything else assumes it.
The Head
Loomis-style construction, features in proportion, and the specific errors that make a portrait look wrong.
Hands and Feet
The parts children hide. Blocked out, simplified and then drawn properly.
Perspective in Practice
A real room and a real street, measured and constructed rather than guessed.
Portfolio
Selecting, finishing and presenting work to a standard an art teacher would take seriously.

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. If Banashankari 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 sketching classes for kids & teens 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 IST. Weekday 5:30 to 8:00 PM IST and weekend mornings, scheduled around Banashankari school hours.
Sketching Classes for Kids & Teens for families in Banashankari
Banashankari takes its name from the Banashankari Amma temple, and the neighbourhood spreads out in numbered stages around it. It is one of the most settled, tradition-minded parts of South Bengaluru, and Shloka and Gita classes are what families here ask us for first.
Banashankari runs along the Outer Ring Road and Kanakapura Road corridors, the same stretch of the city we live on, so these are neighbours as much as students.
