About

Welcome neighbors- to my home based studio in beautiful Apache Shores, near Lakeway, TX. I believe artistic creation is life-giving, especially in the company of friends.
If you do too, then come on over!
Apache Art House is a place to gather and connect through creativity, whether in small group classes, private lessons, or artist workshop events.I believe that Art should encompass playful experimentation- AND that building skills builds confidence. I look forward to learning with you, and sharing your journey of creative expression!-Shawna Martin
Artist, Teacher, and Neighbor

Parent Testimonials:"Shawna is a phenomenal art teacher, art camp facilitator, art event host, and simply an all around amazing human. My family is so fortunate to have found her five years ago.""My ten-year-old daughter began attending Shawna’s Apache Art Camp during its inaugural session, and she hasn’t missed a summer since. She looks forward to art camp every summer, and my six-year-old son has now joined and loves it just as much as his sister.""Shawna is extremely creative, flexible, fun, and nurturing, and my kids feel completely comfortable and supported when they’re with her. She has boosted their confidence and belief in themselves. They come home each session beaming about their unique and highly creative art pieces which are now brightening up many rooms in our home.""This past year my daughter also began weekly afterschool art classes with Shawna, and it’s quickly become her favorite extracurricular activity. Shawna is an expert at taking a child where they are artistically and growing and developing their skills and talents. My daughter thrives in Shawna’s cozy, friendly, artistic environment.""I have even attended one of Shawna’s grownup art making events with family and friends and had the most amazing time, and I can’t wait to attend another.""I’ve recommended Shawna to countless friends whose children love her just as much. My whole family adores her - Shawna is a true treasure in our community."
