An ARC-approved atelier in Minneapolis, MN, dedicated to the training of artists in the tradition of #realism. #AtelierMPLS Instagram: the_atelier_mpls Training artists in the realist traditions of French academic drawing and American Impressionism. The Atelier Studio Program of Fine Arts focuses primarily on teaching fine draftsmanship and painting skills leading to the creation of well constructed artwork. The Atelier has passed on from teacher to student, a method of instruction which melds formal academic training with influence of the French Impressionists. We are devoted to re-establishing the high standards of traditional craft in drawing and painting.
