I enjoy sharing my enthusiasm and experience with the local community and I run courses at Guildford Institute and teach on a one-to-one basis. I have been teaching art techniques, how to develop creativity and how to overcome creative block to children, amateurs and fellow artists for over 15 years.

So many students arrive at classes saying “I will never be an artist” or that they can’t be one, because they don’t have any talent. I believe that everyone can be taught the skill of drawing and painting, but some will ultimately have a natural flair for it. For those who want to become artists, all they need is the persistent drive and motivation to do hours of practice and work to create artworks, in whatever form that may take.

Jennifer is a full-time artist, living in West Sussex. Her work is portrait art, often horses and dogs, but includes other pets and human portraits. She works primarily with a mix of pastels and colour pencil.

Jennifer offers private tuition and is open to developing group lessons.

I am now doing demonstrations in Hobbycraft in Chelmsford, Essex. I have done 4 now. The children come up and help me paint.

I have a CRB and would like to take them for a 2 to 3 hours lesson. I feel that what I do helps the brain to focus and stops boredom by painting pictures. I have been commissioned work by various people over the last 2 years

Since the late 90’s I have been an art tutor, which started with teaching art adult education courses for Central Sussex College, as well as running my own art courses

I enjoy the freedom of lecturing, teaching and presenting work in different places and to different people.
My artwork is mainly digital and is often site-specific to where I am exhibiting or lecturing.

Liz now concentrates on a busy schedule, demonstrating to Art Societies throughout the country and teaching residential courses at Dedham Hall near Colchester, Essex, Earnley Concourse in Sussex, and other centres.

Sera, who lives in Horsell, Woking, is a member of various Surrey art societies and groups and exhibits her work regularly with these.

She also teaches adult education classes and tutors private groups in mainly watercolour, mixed media and drawing mediums.

As a tutor, Melanie is a regular visitor to Art Groups around the South East giving demonstrations, running workshops and hosting painting holidays for individuals.

She has written four art instruction books for Collins.

​I studied and graduated with a Masters degree from the prestigious Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University in Istanbul – I had the privilege of being taught by the wonderful Hikmet Barutçuǧil, one of the most inspirational living masters of the art.

I love to provide tutoring to everyone who wants to know more and meet with this amazing art and introduce them to how versatile and contemporary it can be.

I relish being able to provide the opportunity to those who attend my workshops, to learn the roots of this amazing art and use the possibilities of the Art of Marbling Ebru and the potential within themselves, to be creative .

The objective of the courses will be to focus on individual requirements. Everybody has their own preferences regarding what they like to paint or draw. I will endeavour to improve a student’s skill level, so they become more confident and proficient.

I also will be organising groups to join me during some weekends, drawing and painting landscapes on location.

Fine Drawing and Painting (including Portraits), Presentation Bindings and Calligraphy.

For tutoring, I cover all the major disciplines and a range of subject matter. Apart from sessional teaching, I am more than happy to give workshops and demonstrations to groups and societies.

Previously living in Surrey, I am now resident in Rochester Kent, but am willing to travel.
