Bash & Design Gallery was founded by Maria "Masha" Ermolaeva — a classically trained fine artist and educator — alongside her daughter Ekaterina, creating a studio rooted in purpose, mentorship, and culture. Unlike typical art classes, B&D focuses on building real skills, confident thinkers, and versatile artists through structured, individualized instruction in a warm, welcoming space. We believe Las Vegas deserves rich culture — and we're here to bring it, one student at a time.

 

B&D Gallery isn't a replacement for your art education — it's the studio you add to it. Whether you're picking up a paintbrush for the very first time, just been accepted into art school, already have an art class, or feel like you've "completed" art, you belong here. We've seen time and again that many students — at every level — still haven't learned how to truly paint. We're here to share years of experience, real techniques, and the tricks that textbooks don't teach. Through hands-on demonstrations, varied projects, and meaningful repetition, you'll build skills you can apply to your own work — in your own voice. Just bring one thing: patience. It's the most important tool in the studio.
