​Hello! Thanks for coming by! My name is Tanis Klein. Ever since I was a child, I have had a deep love for art. I cherished every art class I attended in elementary and high school, always wishing I had more opportunities to develop my skills and receive support after school. This passion for art led me to pursue a degree in Fine Arts from the University of Calgary, followed by a Master’s degree in Arts Education from the Art of Education University.

My journey then took me to Guangzhou, China, where I lived for nine incredible years, teaching art to students of all ages. During my time there, I started a successful clay program and produced annual fashion shows and art exhibitions, enriching the lives of my students and fostering their creativity.

Now, back in the town where I grew up, I am thrilled to give back to the community that shaped me. At Creative Cats Art Studio, I am dedicated to providing students with a rich and vibrant arts education experience that is truly world-class. It is a privilege to nurture the next generation of artists in the place that has always been close to my heart.
