Throughout the summer young children, ages 5-14, joined CA artist, author, art director and teacher, Michelle Abrams, (pictured here with teaching assistants, Nick and Megan) for art classes in her San Diego studio. Because of Michelle’s professional art and design background, she offers students unique insights and special personal attention - knowing just when to help, encourage, or redirect them. Michelle's contagious love for the arts brings out the best from her enthusiastic young students during directed-drawing classes and the resulting illustrations are fresh, exuberant, and quite inspirational.

Michelle often compares the student artwork to the classics, describing it as, "quite colorful and strikingly beautiful - worthy of being called 'fine art' in the tradition of Matisse, Van Gogh, Picasso or Miro."

After class, Michelle often encourages parents and students to take their artwork off the refrigerator, enlarge it, frame it, and display it proudly throughout the house! Heart Bryce Lewis Age 6 Goldfish Adeline Longstreth Age 7 Sheeped Emma Griste Age 7 Cocky Rooster Chris DeVito Age 6 Michelle’s husband, Glenn, was inspired to collect the student’s artwork and now, in addition to the thrill and satisfaction of being published artists, more than 70 young students have earned royalties for the reproduction of their work.

Some artists have even framed their first royalty checks - written on their own check designs - while others use their proceeds as extra allowance, for college savings, or to support causes important to them.
