With less than four months left, my daughter was preparing a portfolio for Sheridan Animation and found Toronto Art, a small but specialized school. Janet's knowledge of these areas convinced me we were in the right place. With the help of teachers, my daughter finally got the offer of Sheridan animation. Big thanks to Janet and her team. I also highly recommend this school to anyone in need.

Great teachers!!! My son had been attending the life drawing and animation classes to help him prepare the animation portfolio for 5 months before the submission deadline. With the teachers and professor's advice and feedback, he successfully got into his dream school. Highly recommended if you're applying to art schools and need a perfect portfolio!

I went Toronto Art for about 5 months, and I got an offer from my first choice Sheridan Illustration program! I can’t be more thankful to everyone who I met in this school!

Janet is really sweet and kind. She gave me a lot of encouragement and positive feedback which helped me mentally prepare for the submission!

Jun is very skilled and experienced teacher. I feel like I gain a lot of skills because I had him as a teacher. Especially for figure drawing, I can see the fast improvement only in 5 months! I recommend taking a life drawing class in here if you have never done it before. He will teach you everything from scratch such as anatomy and how to use tools!
For your original work, he will give you a lot of insightful feedback and show you how to do it properly step by step which made me realize how important to have a good tutor like him…!

There are some grad teachers from Sheridan and OCAD. I had Sheridan grad teacher and she tells me many things about the school which is really important to know! She is really good at giving creative ideas so I got so much inspiration from her!

Thanks again for giving me such a great opportunity to learn, I was really lucky that I found this amazing school!

Am a former student of Toronto Art studio and am now just finishing first year architecture university. I have been coming to this studio since grade 10, and they have really helped me learn along the way. Jun and Janet were amazing in making sure I had everything I needed for my portfolio and arranging lessons during the pandemic. I won’t have been able to finish and put together my portfolio if I haven’t had the staffs’ help and guidance throughout those times. I would definitely recommend students coming here because the staff here truly cares about you and the quality of your work.

I got into my first choice Architecture program:) Due to the unstable situation because of the pandemic, it was quite a challenge for me to prepare the portfolio by myself. And Toronto Art was the exact place I was looking for. Toronto Art has a nice studio, that provides a calm and motivating atmosphere. There are great qualified, competent teachers, who are there to support every student. By relieving my concerns, I was able to focus on my portfolio itself besides worrying about preparations of supplies and time managements. Janet gave me a lot of mental support which was not limited to art wise. As well as Jun helped me with brainstorming ideas while emphasizing my strengths and desires within the project. I highly recommend this studio to students who are trying to build a strong portfolio for their application.

I started going to Toronto Art School in 2021, and by the end of January 2022, I was able to create an architecture portfolio that got me into my top choice for University. The staff here are amazing and were extremely helpful to me. They taught me how to sketch, model using foam core , pain, and make marker renderings within a short period of time. If you are looking to make a portfolio for university, I would recommend enrolling into this school as soon as possible. This will give you more time to build a high quality portfolio, and it will make it easier for you to get the help you need. All in all I highly recommend this school.

As a former student of Toronto Art, I can safely say Toronto Art was very helpful. After spending 2 years here preparing my architecture and interior design portfolio, I was able to apply and receive early admission offers from my first choice university programs.
Having past art education background, I was able to get assistance in expanding my creative thinking and originality as an artist. Jun never failed to challenge and push me out of my comfort zone, which ultimately led me to create numerous pieces which i’m very proud of. Janet was also very accommodating and organized with class schedules, which was very helpful especially during the outbreaks in the Covid-19 pandemic. Serafima, the assistant art teacher was very helpful in catching small corrections and fine detail art pieces as well. Juno, the assistant teacher was very knowledgeable about the architecture field and was very helpful in idea generation.
Overall a great experience. I would definitely recommend Toronto Art to anyone looking to apply to post secondary visual arts/interior design/ architectural design programs.
