Find your own artistic voice. This 100 minutes workshop is designed specifically foryoung people ages 12 and up who want to go beyond crafts. A professional studio environment where we explore drawing, painting, ceramics and mixed techniques, focusing on the development of our own visual language and mastery of materials.
Adolescence is a crucial stage for identity development, and art is the perfect tool to channel it. In the Beatriz Seijo Teens’ Art Workshop, we treat our students as artists-in-training, offering them a professional yet flexible space where they can experiment with absolute freedom. From the age of 12, young people possess the maturity required to tackle advanced technical concepts, and in our Santiago studio, we provide them with the tools to achieve this through drawing, painting, and three-dimensional disciplines.
Unlike the children’s levels, these 100-minute sessions prioritize personal exploration and refining the specific techniques that interest each student most. The Beatriz Seijo methodology for this group includes:
Mastering Drawing and Structure: Understanding proportion, perspective, and form so students can break the rules with deliberate artistic intent.
Advanced Painting: Experimenting with oils, acrylics, and mixed media, while delving deeper into applied color theory.
Volume, Sculpture, and Pottery: An introduction to handbuilding and three-dimensional construction. Students learn to grasp spatial awareness, control the behavior of ceramic clay, and experiment with textures and volumetric forms.
Personal Projects: We encourage young artists to bring in their own creative interests (illustration, realism, abstraction, clay sculpting), and we help them take those ideas to the next technical level.
Participating in the Beatriz Seijo Teens’ Art Workshop allows adolescents to experience the authentic environment of a working art academy. This refines their powers of observation, sharpens their critical thinking, and builds patience. Working in extended 100-minute sessions allows students to enter a state of deep focus—essential for the building and drying stages of sculpture or the layering process in painting—which is vital in today’s era of digital distraction.
Our studio in Santiago de Compostela offers a supportive community where teenagers feel valued for their unique talents. By practicing at the Beatriz Seijo Studio, students don’t just enhance their artistic portfolios and fine-tune their manual dexterity; they also build a sense of personal confidence that carries over into their academic and social lives. It is the ideal space for those who view art, lines, and volumes not merely as a hobby, but as a way to understand the world.

Registration in our monthly disciplines ( Ceramics, Painting and Kids’ Creativity ) implies acceptance of these conditions, designed to guarantee the pedagogical quality and sustainability of our groups.
Registration and erolment: To guarantee your seat, it is required to pay the registration fee (a one-off payment of €50.00) and the first monthly instalment for the chosen course in advance.
Continuity: You will not be required to pay the enrolment fee again as long as you retain your place without interruption. In the event of voluntary withdrawal, any future re-enrolment will be subject to payment of the current enrolment fee.
Flexible Enrollment: If you join a group after the course has already started, you will be charged the registration fee and a pro-rata share of the remaining monthly fee, or the full monthly fee if you join at the start of the monthly period.
Cycle Renewal: Students who complete the school year and wish to continue in the next cycle will be exempt from paying enrolment fees.
Mobility: You can request a change of group or discipline during the year at no additional cost, as long as there are vacancies.
Priority Enrollment: At the end of the school year, we open a priority booking period for the following academic year. To confirm your seat, you will be required to pay the first monthly fee for the new course in advance.
Guaranteed Place: Monthly payments must be paid in full within the first 5 days of each month. As your place is reserved exclusively for you, the fee must be paid regardless of any occasional absences.
Management of Non-Payments: Failure to pay the monthly fee by the specified deadline will result in the automatic loss of your place and your removal from the workshop.
Early Cancellation: If you decide not to start the course after booking, you may request a Workshop Voucher for the amount of the monthly fee paid, provided you give at least 7 calendar days’ notice. The registration fee is non-refundable.
Voluntary Cancellation: To formalise a permanent cancellation, you must notify us before the 20th of the current month. Cancellations notified on or after the 21st will take effect the following month, meaning the full monthly fee for that month must be paid.
Group Viability: The running of workshops is subject to a minimum number of participants. If this minimum is not reached, the school will refund 100% of the fees paid (enrolment fee and course fee).
Relocation due to Cancellation: If an existing group falls below the minimum number of students required for it to continue, students will be offered a seat on alternative timetables. If this is not possible or the student is not interested, a technical cancellation will be made without penalty and all charges will be stopped.
Right of Admission: To maintain a creative, safe and respectful working environment, the management reserves the right of admission. Any behaviour that seriously disrupts the harmony of the group will result in immediate expulsion without entitlement to a refund.
None, all material is included. We take care of providing everything necessary for them to live the complete creative experience. We believe that creativity flourishes when the material is at our fingertips; Thus, each student works at their own pace without families having to worry about last-minute purchases or trips.
We know that sometimes artists don’t want to wear the apron so as not to feel “small” or different. However, acrylic paint is almost impossible to remove from clothing. For this reason, we have chosen very comfortable linen aprons, designed to make them feel empowered and detach the activity from “school routines”. We want them, when they put on their artist clothes, to feel like they are entering a space of creative freedom.
If carelessness occurs, the first thing is to soak the garment and then scrub. The ease of removing the stain will depend on the fabric: on cotton fabrics it is more difficult because the pigment adheres, while on synthetic or plastic fabrics the paint film usually comes off more easily.
Our mission is to take care of the health of your family. For this reason, we select paints with the AP (Approved Product) seal from ACMI. This guarantees that the materials have been toxicologically evaluated and do not contain harmful substances for humans or the environment. We want you to enjoy art in a completely safe way.
In the children’s ceramics workshop, children learn that clay needs fire to transform. We bake your pieces at 1300 ºC for about 8 hours. It’s a magical process where your creations stop being simple clay figures and become real, utilitarian ceramic objects, like your own drinking cups!
No. In the case of children’s groups, each workshop is prepared in a monographic and specific way for the students of that particular group. They are closed groups with their own internal rhythm and limited capacity, so it is not possible to attend at a different time than usual.
You can request withdrawal at any time through your personal section on the website. The only requirement is to process it before the 20th of the current month. If the absence is only going to be temporary, you can check our “maintenance fee” to ensure that your place is reserved upon your return.
