Rebecca Schweiger is one of those rare people who makes you feel that anything is possible. She even makes me feel I could paint.
An internationally renowned contemporary painter, Rebecca’s own work has been displayed in over 50 galleries throughout the world. Of her work Rebecca says, ‘My artwork is a sensitive, intimate, and evocative reflection of this ongoing human journey towards spiritual and emotional evolution.’ Whether you are a believer in spiritual journeys or not, what is overwhelmingly obvious is that Rebecca is an enthusiastic, kind and sensitive person who loves to share her passion for art with others, and who believes that anyone can create and benefit from art, no matter what their ability.
Rebecca’s gallery and creative art school – The Art Studio NY – is based in Manhattan and is open for all ages and all levels. Rebecca and three other renowned artists offer regular courses throughout the year, and there’s certainly something for everyone. Acrylics, oils, watercolours, drawing, charcoal, pastels and mixed media are all covered. ‘Everyone can draw’, a weekly two hour course held on Mondays, should encourage even the most pencil-shy person to have a go; ‘Just 4 Kids’ on Tuesdays sounds messy and fun; ‘Paint your heart out’ on Thursdays sounds liberating, and ‘Creating the canvas of your life’ is intriguing.
Classes are for a maximum of 8 people. We think the classes sound brilliant, and Rebecca the sort of person you’d like to have as a best friend.

I was one of Rebecca’s pupils in her art studio on w. 96th,in Manhattan, The class was described as one that could meet the needs of someone who never held a paint brush’.This was very much a mispresentation . The students were quite acomplished. when I could not keep up because the level of teaching was beyond me, I withdrew from the class. This clss was $450.00 for 10 weeks. Ten students were crammed into an 11 by 11 bedroom in an apartment.along with broken down easels The room was filthy and airless. Todate Rebecca this paragon of beauty and spirtuaity has ignored my attempts to rectify this situation.
