Student Testimonials

As a longtime designer and painting ‘dabbler’ I have been delighted studying with Charity Hubbard at Rogue Classical Atelier. Charity offers a century-old proven step by step curriculum that has sharpened my drawing skills and demystified the process of oil painting. Charity is talented, deeply knowlegeable, patient and kind. She offers classes both in person and on zoom which makes it easy to keep progressing through all the complexities of life! I have learned so much working with her and look forward to building my technique even further.

Katy, RCA Student

"As an adult taking part-time classes, I can’t even express my gratitude for how Charity and Rogue Classical Atelier have transformed by art abilities. I’ve taken classes over the years with various instructors, but no one has elevated me like Charity. I have learned so much, starting with the basics, going at my own pace. Charity and her instructors have been great. Highly recommend if you are serious about art.."

Angel, RCA Student

"I have been taking classes at Rogue Classical Atelier part time for about two years. I have grown so much as an artist! Each class I learn new techniques and gain confidence in my abilities. I enjoy seeing what other artists in the classes are accomplishing as well. It is a very affirming environment while learning in a style that has been passed down by masters in art."

Micheal, RCA Student
