Virtual Online Art Classes
Online Virtual Art Classes... in our sixth year!
Undoubtedly, these historical times in which we are currently living have made us aware that there are many ways to accomplish our mission. This is why, since June 2020, during COVID, we have been offering live online art classes via zoom.
What we were not expecting in connection with this course, is that an intimate international community now seems to be developing, with 75% of our participants being returnees. We strongly urge you to register very soon.
Art in Dialogue: Monthly Encounters | Practice, Critique, Community
For 4 weeks starting September 9 th, this class serves as a positive critical evaluation of your studio work completed over the past four weeks, and submitted via email, encompassing all media forms. Acting as moderator, Professor Yves M. Larocque will guide a thoughtful and constructive dialogue around your practice — offering insightful suggestions and showing possible directions to pursue in preparation for the next gathering.
At Walk the Arts, we tailor our teaching to each participant’s level, offering personalized guidance from the very start. Through thoughtful questioning—both individually and as a group—we move forward together in a spirit of exploration and growth. We champion creativity and authenticity in today’s increasingly complex and demanding art world. Above all, we celebrate the uniqueness of every individual.

Ending the Winter | Spring 2026 Semester (monthly encounters)

Your professor, more than 35 years of teaching
“As I grow older, it seems to me that we return to our youth — to its first ideals, to the awakening of our spirituality, to the innocence of the being we once were, certainly altered by time yet intact at its core. Do we truly change in this cosmic micro-nanosecond that is the span of a human life? Essentially, no. So why should we want to reinvent the world, as if everything had to be done over again? Perhaps there is nothing to reinvent. All that remains is to affirm our true presence by resisting intermittence.” (bravoart.org, summer 2026, p. 14)
Testimonials
Many thanks to Yves for your thought- provoking leadership! I’m so grateful to ALL of you!! I’ve learned so much from this group. (S. Welsh, Portland OR, online class, 2026)
“Thank you very much for a wonderful lab course . You are inspirational and exciting to listen to. I appreciate your candor and forthrightness. I have learned many many lessons from you.” (R. Wallin, Kamloops, B.C. ONline art classs 2025)
“[…] I have grown from being a beginner to being a professional painter under Yves’s critique. […] This is really a “Masterclass” that prepares you to go as far as you want as a painter […] I truly understand how this class is a laboratory in art — you have to try, try and try again and then something wonderful will happen. […] It will be difficult to find someone who cares as much about the growth and success of each student. […]” J. Takahashi, Santa Fe, NM (Online art class 2024)
“Yves knows how to individualize his support and his precious, respectful and sincere advice. This allowed me to get out of my “comfort zone” for my greatest joy. I questioned myself, I explored, I doubted, I started again and I painted… In short, I opened myself to new avenues for the pursuit of my art. ” S. Michaud, Montreal, QC (Online art class 2024)
