Utopia Pkwy. Art Studio is a private art studio offering private art
lessons, as well as hand-painted furniture and gifts. Gina Dunn, a formally
trained artist and art teacher, opened her studio’s doors in 2005 to offer
private children’s art lessons. After handling many students’ requests to
create original artwork especially for them, Gina decided to make her custom
artwork available to a wider audience. What makes Utopia Pkwy.’s artwork
unique is that clients can either select from a gallery of in-stock vintage
pieces to be decorated in the design of their choice or order/provide new
pieces to be customized. Utopia Pkwy. specializes in hand-painted children’s
furniture, personalized gifts, keepsakes and room accessories and décor for
the baby nursery or child’s bedroom, as well as hand-painted outdoor swings.
Each item is customized to the client’s specifications. Utopia Pkwy. Art
Studio also offers private art lessons as it believes the arts are essential
to nurture a well-rounded spirit. Children are welcome here to learn,
participate in, and be inspired by the creative world of art. Gina’s
philosophy while teaching is to help her students explore and manipulate
many different art materials and media so that they develop a sense of
autonomy or independence while creating art and along the way they will be
building a variety of skills and techniques. Through this kind of
experimentation, children's perception and understanding of the world are
increased. It is just this free, self-motivated kind of exploration that
teaches children how to use their minds and think for themselves. |
