Why Young Guns Academy?

Young Guns Academy is a branch of Young Guns Studio, an art school that Director Shouh (Pete Young) founded 15 years ago. Young Guns Studio has grown successfully over the years, and now we’re able to provide accessible, high-quality art education that goes beyond the walls of the studio with Young Guns Academy, an online art school.

The goal of YGA is to curb self-doubt, procrastination, intimidation, and limit the financial barriers that can come with finding your artistic path. We teach how to navigate the unknowns of the industry, balancing both soft and hard skills in our instruction. Young Guns Academy will help broaden your understanding of the arts, develop your creative vision, grow your skill set, and implement your learnings to achieve your goals. Whether you have been working in the field for years or are just starting your creative journey, YGA will illuminate your potential and provide you with a clearer vision of your career as an artist.
