Develop your artistic skills in a supportive environment

Instruction focuses on modern and contemporary approaches to art making, prioritizing expression, experimentation and individual stylistic development over perfect accuracy.

This means letting go of the pressure to do something "correctly" and making room to experiment and take the risks that are essential to the learning process.

Our Teaching Focus

The studio specializes in painting and drawing, though many other materials and multi-media processes are frequently taught.
Please check the course or workshop description or get in touch to see which materials may be explored.

A Variety of Approaches

Students are encouraged to challenge their viewpoint of a subject and of art itself as they experiment with different approaches, and are given guidance on how to develop and communicate their ideas through artistic expression.

A strong basis in the fundamentals of each material and technical aspects such as composition, rendering, mark-making, layering and color theory are taught to give students a strong technical foundation to build on.

By exploring a variety of approaches, students can combine and blend processes to create their own unique creative toolkit.
Each student can set their own goalpost for how much they want to focus on accuracy and realism vs expression and experimentation.

The primary language of instruction is English, unless otherwise specified
