An Atelier Method is a method of fine art instruction modeled after the private art studio schools of 15th to 19th century Europe. Taking its name from the French word for "artist's studio," the Atelier Method is a form of private instruction in which an artist, usually a professional painter, works closely with a small number of students to progressively train them.
