I also regularly run adult level workshops. These have taken place in both formal and informal settings and have included a wide range of ability levels. My background in textiles and illustration has provided me with a diverse set of skills which enable me to plan and deliver engaging and insightful sessions via a wide range of media and processes.

I am a researching collaborator in power electronics and I studied a master's degree in industrial engineering. I love to teach everything I have learned, in a structured and methodical way.

I am a professional artist who has exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery in London, at the Royal Academy, more recently at the Salisbury Museum, and internationally. I offer lessons in Painting, Drawing and Art History.

I have a big interest in materials and techniques, I have use embroidery in a series of works that I have realised recently for a solo show in Rome.

I gain a MA at the Chelsea College of Arts in London and therefore I can help you prepare your portfolio for university applications or teach you how to paint a portrait or a still life.
If you are interested in gaining more knowledge of art History I can also help.

For the last 9 years, I have been an assistant to British Painter Jonathan Yeo, working with him toward big national shows such as a show at the National Portrait Gallery, or international such as the one in Friederiksborg Castle in Denmark in 2016.

Create with Love...the process is the best part of it!

I'm Cecilia, a Mexican artist who loves to explore new creative avenues whenever I can. For as long as I can remember, my life's passion (and a challenge) is experimenting with colours and materials using life and culture as an inspiration!

I offer art workshops in drawing and painting for kids 5-12 and adults. During my classes I include practical and theoretical exploration of art. I will give you an in depth look into my favourite art supplies and how to use them properly, you will learn different techniques and fun new ways to use your paints mixed with other mediums and supplies. Painting can be intimidating, but it can be easy and fun with my simple direction!

I am a professional dancer and teacher. My work ethics are very aligned with buddhism and want to help people to feel good in their own bodies, releasing trauma, blockages and tensions. This is an opportunity to also have a good time and be in touch with your emotions through movement.

I use the body to understand ourselves and our deepest thought process by truly connecting with the present moment. I use meditation and other techniques to help us drop the voices in our heads and create a free channel of connection with higher self. My intention is to help the body be the vessel it is and gain trust and confidence in who we are.

I am an architectural assistant and hold a Masters degree in Architecture. Having a strong passion towards art and human behaviour has led me to shaping haptic spaces to enable a journey full of encounters. I believe our subconsciousness can be expressed through bodily movements that can initiate with the mere moment of grabbing a pencil or a brush. As a result, my class explores the poetry behind art and its essence. My teaching method revolves around finding an individual's inner characteristics and conveying this into an expressive art form.

My goal is to keep students challenged, but not overwhelmed. During my class, different mediums will be tested to ignite creativity.

As a result of my profession, my classes can involve digital design involving Photoshop and Illustrator. It is important to be able to understand both 2D and 3D forms and so, my teaching method can include both aspects.
