Roshel Rivellino
“This art school is fantastic. The owner makes this such a welcoming and fun experience for everyone. Both kids and adults are welcome and they can teach anyone how to paint!
The adult art class became my home away from home while traveling for work every week. Highly recommend this art school because it truly is one of a kind.”

Our School
Our new location
The Rivellino School of Art is located in the heart of beautiful downtown Long Grove
in the blue building across the street from Enzo & Lucia’s. The address is:
350 Old McHenry Road, Long Grove, IL 60047.
Our Philosophy
Rivellino School of Art uses the Illinois District’s Goals and Standards as an essential element of our curriculum. Children benefit from this, as it provides background knowledge and support for the school year while cultivating a confidant, creative child.
Our Teachers…
Our teachers are highly qualified and have a passion for teaching. They are all certified, experienced teachers, most with Masters Degrees. Since our classes are small, we take pride in providing individual attention and support. Roshel Rivellino oversees and team teaches every class.
“This past Spring I had the privilege of attending the Schaefer/Miles Oil Painting Demonstration & Workshop. Wendy and Kevin’s teaching techniques were phenomenal and—for beginners as well as advanced art students—it was an incredible learning experience. Well, they are returning to the Rivellino School of Art in beautiful downtown Long Grove, IL, October 16 to October 18. You do not want to miss this opportunity to meet two great artists and teachers. Hope to see you in class.”
