Welcome to the Greg Storer Art Classes, Cincinnati, Ohio. We provide art classes for students age 6 and up. All skill levels and all abilities are welcome at our studio in Mason just north of Cincinnati. Our spacious 3400 sq. ft. space features vaulted ceilings and natural light.
What Makes Us Unique
We are Education Based
If you think you can draw or paint... you probably can! Many people have talent, but lack skill.
We teach drawing and painting skills and techniques that have been passed down for centuries. Linear Perspective, sight sizing, shading with direct and ambient light, design and color theory. "Art" is not just copying what you see. We help our students learn to interpret and design their own art.
We are authorized by the College Board to teach AP 2-D Art and Design and Drawing Portfolio. Click here to view our registered credentials.
Greg has a bachelors degree in Painting and Drawing (OSU, 1979). He has been painting professionally for over 40 years and teaching over 20. View his Professional Bio, click here. His work is currently in Cincinnati's oldest and most prestigious gallery, Cincinnati Art Gallery. He has exhibited paintings from Santa Fe to Brussels. See Greg's work desktop only, click here.
Rendering is the art of drawing or painting what you see (some call rendering the art of seeing). Cartooning is the art of drawing or painting from memory and imagination. We have a library of history and technique books we share with our students. We offer constructive critique with suggestions.
Learn to Draw! Learn to Paint! - Pencil and Charcoal, Oil Paint, Oil Pastel, Pastel, Water Color and Acrylic painting. Research images and experiment with digital art or animation one of our 15 iPads! Experiment with drawing on one of our camera lucida. Make your art in a relaxed, friendly, creative environment, at my studio, in Mason, Cincinnati.

Response from Kurt...
In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write a famous author and ask for advice. Kurt Vonnegut was the only one to respond - and his response is magnificent:
“Dear Xavier High School, and Ms. Lockwood, and Messrs Perin, McFeely, Batten, Maurer and Congiusta: I thank you for your friendly letters. You sure know how to cheer up a really old geezer (84) in his sunset years. I don’t make public appearances any more because I now resemble nothing so much as an iguana.
What I had to say to you, moreover, would not take long, to wit: Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what’s inside you, to make your soul grow.
Seriously! I mean starting right now, do art and do it for the rest of your lives. Draw a funny or nice picture of Ms. Lockwood, and give it to her. Dance home after school, and sing in the shower and on and on. Make a face in your mashed potatoes. Pretend you’re Count Dracula.
Here’s an assignment for tonight, and I hope Ms. Lockwood will flunk you if you don’t do it: Write a six line poem, about anything, but rhymed. No fair tennis without a net. Make it as good as you possibly can. But don’t tell anybody what you’re doing. Don’t show it or recite it to anybody, not even your girlfriend or parents or whatever, or Ms. Lockwood. OK?
Tear it up into teeny-weeny pieces, and discard them into widely separated trash receptacles. You will find that you have already been gloriously rewarded for your poem. You have experienced becoming, learned a lot more about what’s inside you, and you have made your soul grow.
God bless you all!" Kurt Vonnegut
