About Us
John and Daniella Martin founded The Pasadena Atelier art studio in 2009.  

OUR MISSION is to enhance the fundamental artistic skills of our students and to promote knowledge and appreciation of the visual arts.  At the atelier, we place great emphasis on a more traditional approach in painting and drawing to form a solid foundation while allowing creative exploration of modern art forms.
