Welcome to the Official Facebook Page of the Academy of Art of Highland Park
We are a private, fine art studio and gallery. We are a classical, not recreational studio. We approach art as a form of knowledge and studio craft as its discipline. We understand that while creativity and raw talent are core elements of art no one can attain their full potential without practice, formal training and dedication. We teach both the classical and avant-garde traditions in fine drawing, watercolors, oils, acrylic, sculpture, printmaking, cartooning, inks, abstract art, and illustration. In addition, all of our classes allow the student to experiment, experience, and be trained in various media. Our portfolio class encourages students to create a well rounded portfolio with many techniques and media. All of our lessons are based on carefully planned syllabi that focus on skills-building and expert craft knowledge. We also invite you to please visit our website.

The AAHP supports and enhances the art practitioner’s pursuit of deep craft command in studio and field. The AAHP serves this mission while following the teachings and practices of the stronger practitioners of Western culture—the old, modern, and contemporary master practitioners — be they famous, infamous, obscure, or anonymous. Through strong teaching and strong learning of time-honored craft practices, the AAHP experience equips the practitioner to remain a life-long beginner. This power helps him or her as a thinker, designer, and builder of work that aspires to art.
We offer the finest quality semi-private fine art lessons for all ages (with different curricula for all entry ages and skill levels). We also formally exhibit our students’ artwork. We help students prepare college portfolios and portfolios for job admissions.
