While training in skills such as: Ornamental painting, Illusionary & Representational Art, Surfaces, Restoration and Mimicry students explore the ties to sciences such as Earth Science, Biology, Psychology, Chemistry, and Mathematics.
We are part of an American trade movement redefining arts education in relationship to the sciences and creative career paths. Our instructors are practicing professionals that teach a curriculum based on their success. With education in the art, craft, business, and science of painting we aim to assist individuals who are serious about developing successful careers as professional artists, scholars and industry leaders.
The School of Applied Arts provides hands on experiences in real world environments similar to historical European apprenticeships and attracts students from around the world. Contact us and learn more about our program.

SAA Student Jon Smith has just completed a 19th century French "block print" style mural in a residence here in Denver. Working with the client took a great intellectual skill set to decisively match the clients perception of beauty to a mural that could have the same felt emotions by other viewers. Jon Smith hit his design target right on and produced a mural of a subtle and stunning beauty that simultaneously conveyed an understanding of the simplicity of modern values.
