Top Art studios in Barrie, Canada

Had so much fun at the watercolor winter landscape class with amber! Amber and Heather are so friendly and it's a very cozy and comfy environment to paint in 😊 can't wait to try another class soon! 💕

Heather and Amber are both amazing, creative talents. They both provide a welcoming environment for their students. I am a retired person who went from drawing stick people to creating art that I now hang on our family’s walls. Heather’s talents also transfer into her knowing just the right frame to enhance art pieces. I cannot say enough of what a wonderful place this is for all who gather there to cultivate their artistry and who want to find a place to feel comfortable.

I wanted to create a custom gallery wall in my home, and after doing research I came across Creative Palette. I gave Heather a call and she was very pleasant and professional. I enjoyed my experience working with her. It was truly a collaborative effort! She listened to my requirements and helped me select great frames to display my family pictures. If you're looking for custom framing, Creative Palette is the place to go!

I had a very special graphite drawing of my late pup commissioned and it deserved to go in a great frame. After researching online, I liked what I read about the Creative Palette and so I called Heather. After a short conversation and in our appointment, I knew I wanted Heather to do the framing and that she would take care of my art and it was safe in her hands. Her art experience gives her a unique edge on getting just the right shade of mat and frame so that the picture remains the focus. I am thrilled with the result! Thank You so much Heather for taking care of my picture as if it was your own, as well as for your assistance and compassion.

I highly recommend Maria as an art teacher. She found the right approach for my daughter. My daughter likes visiting Maria's studio, and every time she goes to class with pleasure. She has been attending the lesson for the second year, and progress is visible every time it gets better and better. Maria is a true professional in her field!

Our family highly recommend this Art Studio with a very talented teacher Maria. Our daughter started last year the acrylic and oil classes and already has the amazing results. If your child need to learn different techniques and improve his/her skills in art you should definitely visit this Studio!

Highly recommended. My kids love to take art classes in Green Lion Studio. Every class is unique, my kids learning various art techniques by using different materials. Maria is a very professional and talented teacher. You will enjoy your art experience even if you never tried it before.

My 11 yr old daughter absolutely loves these classes. Heather and her associates are wonderful to the children, keeping them inspired and happy. My child's demeanour actually changes while attending - after the class she is calm, contented, and quite obviously 'in the zone'. I am grateful that my girl has such a positive experience to look forward to each week.

I have had a number of prints framed at Creative Palette over the past two years and have loved everyone of them. Heather takes the time to listen to your thoughts and ideas before sharing her professional opinion. She has a great eye for detail and provides quality work in a timely manner and is always willing to work with your timeline. If you need quality framing at a great price you wont go wrong with Creative Palette.

I went to the Creative Palette in hopes that my special piece I painted on canvas could be framed. I knew little about this process and hoped I would get direction and assistance. Heather did not disappoint. Heather new exactly what would compliment my painting and I felt comfortable leaving my special piece with her knowing she would take very good care of it.
The price was on point and would absolutely support local than the chain stores, especially with my special piece.
Please contact Heather with all your needs, she is wonderful to work!
Side note..She takes amazing precautions during the COVID pandemic as well. I felt very safe.

Mariya is amazing teacher that finds way to every student, making sure that kids and adults feel welcomed and interested to learn strokes and details of art creation. Kids admire Mariya and want more and more. The Studio looks like Art gallery filled with Art pieces that are done with love, and anyone who gets there feels like in enchanted place.
It doesn't matter how old you are and what level of mastery you are on, you will certainly enjoy creating your masterpiece there. Thanking you for your talent and diligence

Maria is a great artist and teacher. She is very attentive, patient and can find an approach to absolutely any student. I'm happy that I found her.

My daughter and I have been attending art classes with Heather at the Creative Palette for two years now. We find Heather to be an encouraging and helpful instructor. She has a lovely teaching style that encourages individual expression, while offering technical instruction. The projects are creative and beautiful. The environment is comfortable and welcoming.

My 12 year old daughter says "it's awesome" and I agree😀
