John Emerson, a software engineer from Seattle, had always admired the beauty of art but believed he didn't have the talent to create it himself. That changed when he discovered ORINTHAVAL's drawing courses. The structured lessons and supportive community helped John harness his creative potential. "ORINTHAVAL made it possible for me to create art that I'm genuinely proud of," John shares. His sketches, once tentative, are now a vibrant part of his life, hanging proudly on his living room walls.

Lucy Thompson, a high school teacher from Boston, found a new passion while exploring ORINTHAVAL during the pandemic. Initially joining just to pass the time, Lucy quickly fell in love with the artistic process. "The instructors at ORINTHAVAL are phenomenal," Lucy beams. Her newfound skills in watercolors and charcoals have not only enriched her personal life but inspired her to integrate art into her classroom, sparking creativity in her students as well.

Michael Vargas, an architect from San Diego, always dreamed of complementing his career with a strong personal passion for art. With ORINTHAVAL, he not only succeeded in his wish but excelled beyond his expectations. "The flexibility and quality of ORINTHAVAL's courses helped me integrate art seamlessly into my hectic life," Michael explains. Today, his mixed-media artworks are exhibited locally, a testament to the skills and confidence ORINTHAVAL helped him cultivate.
