Sketching Classes for Kids & Teens in Dubai

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.

Why families choose us

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.

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.

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

Timings

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 weekend batches run on Saturday and Sunday, the UAE weekend since 2022, with Friday afternoon slots for families whose working week ends at Friday lunch.

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.

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.

Getting started is easy

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 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 GST. Weekday 5:00 to 7:30 PM GST works comfortably for both sides, and weekend batches run on Saturday and Sunday, the UAE weekend since 2022, with Friday afternoon slots for families whose working week ends at Friday lunch..

Sketching Classes for Kids & Teens in Dubai, FAQs

Ten to fifteen. Younger children are better served by our drawing class, which covers the same foundations at a gentler pace. This one assumes a child who already draws by choice.
