Welcome to The Bright Idea Studio, also known as the art room at Santa Barbara Christian School. We strongly believe that  fine arts are an integral part of learning and can improve children's grades and give them an outlet to express their creativity. We see God as the greatest Creator and we use our art to honor him!   "In the Beginning, God Created"... Genesis 1:1

After School Art Classes

The Bright Idea Studio is open after school to all children in our community that want to learn and improve their art skills. Our classes are for ages 7-14 and we teach kids about various methods & techniques of studio art including: drawing, painting, 3-dimensional arts, collage, and more.

SBCS believes in the value of a comprehensive fine arts program that is taught by a credentialed Art Teacher. Students at SBCS study about artists, art history and explore many different mediums including, watercolor and acrylic painting, chalk pastels, oil pastels, color pencils, pens and markers, clay, and collage.

We try, when possible, to integrate art with other subjects like language arts, science, history, and bible.  Middle school curriculum includes a more in depth study into  Renaissance Art, Roman and Egyptian Art, American Artists, and the French Impressionists
