Nannanxi Art Studio is a children's art school with a Henderson studio at 3/7 Waipareira Avenue, Henderson, Auckland. The studio teaches drawing and painting to children aged 3 to 15. It has six studios across Auckland, in Mt Eden, Avondale, Flat Bush, Albany, Henderson and Browns Bay, and it also runs online art classes. The founders' background goes back to 2006, when the team behind the Lilei and Hanmeimei characters in Beijing set up a children's art studio in Shanghai Pudong. The studio's own characters include Lengtoo and the Family of Nannanxi.
The classes move from simple shape work with watercolours and markers for younger children, to acrylics with craft clay, picture-book drawing and colour work for primary school children. Older students with basic drawing skills study still life, landscapes, animals and figures. A sketching class follows the Chinese Academy of Fine Arts sketching exam guidelines. The studio also runs a creative holiday programme. Recent news on the website says the studio has been showing a children's art exhibition at the library, featuring work inspired by life in New Zealand.
