About Divine Arts Handicrafts Dubai, Oud Metha

Divine Arts Handicrafts is a decoupage and upcycling studio in Oud Metha, Dubai, run by artist Suryaprabha Easwar. For families, the main offer is a drawing and painting class for children aged 5 to 13. Classes run on Saturdays and Sundays, in person or online, and each lasts one hour; you call the studio to fix a time. Teaching is step by step, from pencil basics to colour pencils, watercolours and acrylic painting, building from beginner level upwards. A single class is 75 AED, or there is a package of 8 classes for 550 AED, and a free half-hour trial class comes before joining. Beyond the kids' class, the studio teaches decoupage, which means decorating boxes, bottles and wooden pieces with paper and mixed media, and it makes personalised gifts and transforms old furniture. Private one-to-one sessions and group workshops, including party workshops, are available on request. It is rated 5.0 on Google from 25 reviews.

The activity

Drawing, explained

Children's drawing and painting classes teach kids to look closely at shapes, light and colour, then get them onto paper. A course usually starts with pencil basics: lines, shapes, shading and simple objects. It then moves on to colour pencils, where children learn to blend and layer, and on to paint, often watercolour first and then acrylic. Most lessons end with a finished picture to take home. Along the way, kids build fine motor control, patience, observation and the confidence to try again when a picture goes wrong. Many children start at around five, once they can hold a pencil with some control; younger ones often enjoy looser, craft-based sessions more.

Who it's for

Children aged 5 to 13 for the drawing and painting class, which starts from the basics, so no experience is needed. Classes are offered in person in Oud Metha and online. Private one-to-one sessions and group workshops, such as party workshops, are available on request. The studio's decoupage workshops are aimed at beginners ('no special skill needed'); ask the studio whether a decoupage session suits your child's age.

What to expect

Start with the free half-hour trial class, which the studio offers before you join. Classes last one hour and run on Saturdays and Sundays. Times are agreed by phone rather than published, so call or WhatsApp +971 50 678 4025 to fix a slot and to choose between in-person and online. Lessons follow a step-by-step method: pencil basics first, then colour pencils, watercolours and acrylic painting as your child progresses. For in-person classes, ask for the exact address in Oud Metha and whether materials are included in the fee. For online classes, ask which materials your child needs at home before the first lesson.
