Kebby McInroy, Founder, CEO

Meet Kebby McInroy, the dynamic founder of Studio 4 Art, Do Art Daily, and Marin Pottery, whose entrepreneurial spirit and passion for art education have been shaping the creative landscape for over 24 years. With an impressive background as a draftsman, clothing designer, oil painter, and early childhood educator, Kebby’s extensive experience is matched only by her enthusiasm for teaching and inspiring others.

Kebby holds a BA in Painting from Sonoma State, with a focus on child psychology and early childhood education. She’s turned this knowledge into action, breaking traditional molds and crafting elevated learning experiences through a process-based art curriculum. This approach not only fosters creativity but also ensures that children have a voice in their artistic expression, allowing them to fully engage with and lead their own learning journeys. Since opening her flagship studio in Novato in 2008, she’s created vibrant, hands-on environments where both children and adults can explore their creativity and become confident, self-directed artists.

Beyond her studio ventures, Kebby’s entrepreneurial journey extends to coaching and consulting with fellow art studio owners. Her expertise helps others transform their visions into thriving businesses, guiding them to build studios that resonate with creativity and success. Whether inspiring young artists or mentoring fellow entrepreneurs, Kebby’s commitment is to fuel curiosity, risk-taking, and creative exploration in every endeavor she undertakes.
