About Us
We Believe Drawing Is An Attainable Skill
The reason you may not know how to draw is that no one taught you how.
Did you know that only two percent of people are born with a natural talent to draw?
Everyone else can learn and discover their drawing ability. If you can sign your name, throw a ball or tie your shoelaces, you can learn how to draw.

Our Teaching Philosophy
At Aliki’s Art House, we believe drawing is a skill anyone can learn. Like playing an instrument, it develops through guided practice and effective instruction. Our instructors are artists and trained educators who are passionate about art and teaching.
Our signature 7-Step System, created by Aliki Sironus, progressively builds drawing skills, confidence, and creative freedom. While we teach realistic techniques to strengthen artistic foundations, we also encourage exploration of abstract and expressive styles — showing that art goes beyond realism. Once a solid drawing foundation is developed, students are ready to move into other art disciplines such as painting and sculpting.
We challenge artistic myths, embrace mistakes, and celebrate the joy of creating. Through structured yet flexible classes, workshops, and camps, students grow both technically and personally.
Beyond drawing instruction, we offer education in colour theory, art history, and visual vocabulary, fostering a deeper appreciation for art. Aliki’s Art House is a nurturing space for growth, and unlocking creative potential.

FAQS
What Makes Your Teaching Method Unique?

What Can I Do At Home To Help My Child Learn to Draw?
One of the best things you can do is encourage your child to use a visual reference when drawing.
Is It Possible To Learn How To Be An Artist, Even Without A Natural Talent?
Yes, it is definitely possible to learn to be an artist! While some people may have a natural inclination or talent for art, becoming an artist is largely a matter of practice, learning, and developing skills. Talent is optional – interest is an asset! Drawing classes will get one started on an artistic and creative path.
My Kids Don’t Show Much Interest In Art And I’m Not Sure If They Are Talented Enough To Take Classes. Any Suggestions?
Many children may not show an interest in art simply because they haven’t been exposed to the techniques and skills needed to create. Art education plays a crucial role in developing children’s confidence and abilities. When children are taught specific drawing skills, such as understanding shapes, proportions, and shading, they gain the tools they need to express themselves. This technical knowledge can boost their confidence and encourage them to explore their creativity.
