About Us
We’re not an ordinary art academy. Our mission is to develop individuals who excel in confidence, creativity, communication, and soft skills like teamwork, clever thinking and decision-making for a bright future.
Mr. Nick – Founder
With years of leadership experience as a CEO in the advertising world and a lifelong passion for art, I’ve seen firsthand how creativity and communication shape success—not just in business, but in life. That’s why I created BrushTales: to help children grow into confident, expressive, and emotionally intelligent individuals.
Growing up in Switzerland and gaining international experience in the UK, US, and Australia, I bring a global perspective and bilingual fluency in English and Swiss-German to everything we do. Our curriculum is designed to be fun and engaging—but also purposeful. Through art, we nurture essential life skills like clever thinking, teamwork, decision-making, and self-expression. These are the tools children need to thrive—not just in school, but in the world beyond.

Ms. Faith - Co Founder
With a background in business communications and marketing, I've spent years helping businesses connect meaningfully with the people they serve. Along the way, I've built a solid foundation in sales, client relations, and visual storytelling, as well as valuable insight from working in the mental health and wellness space. These combined skills now shape and influence the way we mentor and develop at BrushTales.
Art has always been an important space for me—the beauty of the colours, textures, the limitless creations, the stories being told without words, and getting something from your mind, into a visual form. At BrushTales, our mission is to design programs that build creativity, emotional intelligence, and bilingual communication. Our focus is on the creative journey: children learn to express themselves, develop self-confidence, and build important life skills through playful, narrative-driven projects.

Our Values
Good Person
We believe in kindness, fairness and doing the right thing — even when no one’s watching. It’s how we live, how we teach, and what we pass on to all of our students.
Mental Strength
Life throws curveballs, and we’ve learned to meet them with calm, clarity and resilience. We want our students to feel strong on the inside, ready to handle big feelings and bounce back when things get tough.
Street-Smart
We trust our instincts, think on our feet and know how to read a room. It’s not just book smarts, it’s real-world awareness. We help kids grow into confident, curious problem-solvers who know how to navigate life.
Vitality
We care deeply about staying active, eating well and living with energy. It’s part of who we are, and it shapes how we show up — with movement, balance and a love for healthy habits that we pass on to every student.
