Art Classes
Susanne Lamoureux and Frank Haddock are Edmonton artists/instructors who raise money for the Hervey Foundation for Cats through their workshops.


The Artra Art School is located at 15607 - 100 A Avenue in Edmonton and prides itself in providing a nurturing, friendly environment to both children and adults. With small classes and private lessons, we are committed to upholding the highest standards in art instruction by giving frequent demonstrations, solid instruction, personalized attention, and lots of encouragement and support.  At the Artra Art School, we understand developing art skills requires learning a visual
language, which is taught visually in the form of demonstrations.  We believe that students learn best by watching and doing.  Not only do our students develop intellectually, but their creative potential flourishes--our students have won local, provincial, national art competitions.

A variety of courses in different mediums are available at the school.  Look for our upcoming courses at http:\\visualartmoves.com  Courses are offered from beginner-level to advanced-level students.  The Artra Art School is open to all artists who are interested in developing or enhancing their skills.  Even for artist wannabees - those who believe that they can only draw stick figures - we have courses for you.

The school features instructors who are professional artists.  These talented professionals generously share their art knowledge as they demonstrate new techniques in class projects.  Students learn a visual vocabulary which they can use to bring increasing skill to their own creative works.

Frank Haddock, an award winning artist, is the owner of the Artra Art School.  He has appeared on television numerous times. Frank Haddock is one of those rare artists who has been creating and exhibiting his art work for most of his life.  His work is included many public collections such as the Alberta Art Foundation.  He easily works in all media from watercolour to oil to acrylic.  Frank has also been teaching for more than 20 years.  Frank brings a lifetime of experience to each of the art courses he conducts.

Perhaps the most enjoyable part of any course with Frank is his dazzling demonstrations!  Frank is known to do demonstrations of any subject his students bring to class.  Otherwise, he plans demonstrations to clarify concepts and show students how particular subjects may be developed.

Although he has a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Alberta his knowledge of drawing and painting is largely self-taught.  Since Frank explored drawing and painting on his own he is familiar with the problems that his
students encounter.  For this reason he approaches the education of his students with unusual insight.

Susanne Lamoureux, an award winning artist, a certified teacher who was nominated for excellence in teaching, brings her skills and knowledge to
both adults and children.  Susanne sees the potential artist in each student and she believes in unveiling this student potential. She spends time with her students to give them the best possible opportunity to
succeed.  With demonstration and instruction, individual attention as the students pursue their own work in class, and group discussion of the results, Susanne brings the standard of excellence to her classroom.
Students are able achieve beyond their own initial expectations.

Focusing on drawing, coloured pencils and oils, Susanne's enthusiasm is contagious and no student is immune.  Susanne teaches principles of art and these principles can be transferred to other mediums and art forms.

With the Progressive Individualized Child's Program, Susanne designed a curriculum with the objective of producing a high caliber art work from her students.  Like their teacher Susanne's students have won awards - and they have won numerous awards from local and national competitions.
