testimonials

The May Art Studio is the best place. If you want to be inspired by all the beautiful art and learn how to create it yourself, then go! The instructor, Damir May, creates a very pleasant atmosphere for learning.

Serge S.

Thank you so much for teaching my son. He is 13 and he has changed so much since he began his lessons with you. He is so self-assured and committed. He now has good grades in school, in ALL SUBJECTS, just from having the improved confidence and belief that he can do something great. Not just talking about art, but life! This is the outcome. Thank you!
