Kids & Adult Art Classes in Miami, Painting & Drawing Classes - Sofia Art Academy of Miami - Sunny Isles Beach, Florida

Art class

I was looking for an art studio to learn and paint a piece based on an idea I have had for sometime.
I came across Sofia art academy in a google search.
I am glad I did. Under instruction by Igor, I steadily worked on my piece for two months. To be a great artist is one thing but to teach the art to newbies needs an even great skill, patience and Igor is all that. I learnt a lot about light, shadows, shades and color mixing.
Highly recommend this studio.

I can only express my gratitude for the amazing job that Sofia Art Academy has done with my daughter.
What started as an attempt to find an extracurricular activity, became a passion and a way to develop discipline.
Thank you for your wonderful job.

The SofiaArtAcademy is the best! Igor is an amazing teacher who provides the right amount of encouragement and structure to teach young kids the basics of classical drawing and painting. He helped my daughter prepare her portfolio and auditions for art high school applications in Miami-Dade. She got into all the art high schools magnets she applied to (DASH, New World, MAC) thanks to his help. This was the best investment we made on her education . The extra classes gave her confidence and helped her develop her potential.

Sofia Art Academy is the best art school in Miami, and Igor is the best.
My daughter attended the clases here for a few years, and prepared for High School auditions. She’s been accepted to all three schools for which she auditioned - DASH, New World and MAC!!!

Хочу выразить огромную благодарность школе SOFIA ART ACADEMY за подготовку моей дочери к экзаменам на поступление в magnet school DASH. В сжатые сроки руководитель школы Игорь, смог обучить мою дочь нужным навыкам, поставить руку, подготовить морально к audition в школе DASH. В итоге мы успешно прошли экзамены и приглашены на обучение в DASH.

My story with the Sofia Art Academy studio began a year ago when I decided to realize my old dream on canvas. The first thing that struck me was the atmosphere of creativity and inspiration that reigns here. Upon arrival, I felt this was the house where I could develop my artistic abilities.
As a director and teacher, Igor is an outstanding artist and an excellent mentor. His professional skill and understanding of art is immensely inspiring. He has a unique gift for explaining complex concepts and techniques in a way that makes them accessible to even beginning students.
I can work with various materials in the Sofia studio, such as acrylic paints, pencils, and watercolors.
After a few months of training, I saw tremendous progress in my skills and became more confident in expressing my ideas on canvas. Studio "Sofia" gave me technical skills and faith in my artistic potential.
I want to say a big thank you to the Sofia studio and Igor for an incredible journey into the world of art.
This is the place where talent is born!

My daughter is 8 years old. We have tried different art places before we came to Sofia Art Academy. If you are still thinking what place to choose, there is no doubt you should pick Sofia Art Academy. It is a very professional studio that gives kids fundamental knowledge of art, teaches them classic approaches, including numerous drawing techniques. Teachers hold highest art degree, are very knowledgeable and professional, and most importantly, educate kids to draw rather than copy drawings. Best choice you can do for your child! It is worth it!

We came here from Texas with the goal of getting our artistically gifted daughter accepted to the DASH school. Sending our daughter to Mr. Igor at the Sofia Art Academy was the best choice we could have made. We were late to the program but Mr. Igor helped our daughter work on an accelerated schedule to build her skills to create an art portfolio in time for the schools deadline for portfolio submission. Thanks to Mr Igors' guidance our daughter was was accepted to both DASH and NWSA. We will be eternally grateful for his guidance and belief in our daughter. Cant wait to see what her future holds.
