About the Instructor

Geoffrey Klepeis is a Calgary born artist. Formally trained at the Alberta College of Art and Design, his passion for the traditional figurative arts led him to simultaneously study at Studio Escalier during the summers. Located in Argenton-Les-Valees, France, Studio Escalier is where the majority of his classical training took place. Geoffrey now operates a figure drawing studio in Calgary, and instructs workshops and classes at both his personal studio, and at the Calgary School of Arts.
