Fink School of Traditional Art

General information

The Fink School of Traditional Art, originally established as the Randallstown School of Art in 1965, has taught thousands of students in Northwest Baltimore the techniques and joys of drawing and painting. Director Alan Fink (www.alanfink.com) has been painting professionally and teaching for over 40 years. In 1990, the school moved to Reisterstown, where it 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 7 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- the emphasis being on fundamentals as opposed to any particular style.

Portfolio development for all levels from middle school to college is offered on an individual basis. Magnet school preparation is a specialt
