The Fink School of Traditional Art began as the Randallstown School of Art in 1965 by Paula Fink (1927-2018), and has taught thousands of students in Northwest Baltimore the techniques and joys of drawing and painting. Current Director Alan Fink (https://alanfink.com) has been painting professionally and teaching for over 40 years. In 1990, the school moved to Reisterstown, where Alan continues to provide formal art instruction as well as fun and relaxation for all who attend. Our mission is to provide the best in classical fine art instruction to both beginners and non-beginners from ages 8 to adult.
Instruction is individual within the class and is presented in a relaxed, constructive environment. Students work at their own pace and comfort level, beginning with basic charcoal drawing and progressing into pastels and oils. Recently we introduced new courses in pencil/graphite drawing and colored pencil. Our emphasis is on fundamentals as opposed to any particular style. Our method of individual instruction is crucial for the well-being and development of our young students, who usually excel as they progress through the school years. Portfolio development for all levels from middle school to college is offered on an individual basis. Magnet school preparation is a specialty.
Our adult classes have been described by our students as the "most relaxed, stress-free 2 hours of the week", especially in these unusual times!
Many of our adult students are returning to their art "roots" from years ago, and many are pure beginners who have always wanted to learn how to draw or paint. Most find that our system of teaching enables them to begin creating fine art very quickly.
Regardless of age or experience level we can help students to reach their goals!
