- I study interior design at university. I have experience in drawing and painting as I received a 6 in GCSE and an A in A level Fine Art. Till to this day I continue to draw and paint whenever I have some free time.
- I will demonstrate the process of drawing and painting anything which the student want to learn. From realism to an impressionist style.
- I will make the student leave having better art creating knowledge

I aim to teach with passion and enthusiasm, my lessons are enjoyable, easy to welcome into students’ daily lives. With focus on mindfulness and relaxation as well as the concentration of the mind, students will feel much lighter in essence after completing an immersive yoga session.

To succeed in Fine Art, we need to open our ways of thinking. Oftentimes, we can feel stuck, lost or uninspired. In this class, I will teach you how to move forward in these moments; how to produce a healthy momentum in yourself to find excitement in your projects and push through them to the finishing point.

Fine Art is unlike any subject in that it really comes from the individual. There is no "right way", but if there is no discernible path, where do we go? I can show you how to tap into your inner artist and create and move through projects with a self-direction that will build your confidence, ignite passion and open unlimited ways to express yourself regardless of technical ability.

Is there a project you are currently working on that you are stuck with? Are you feeling uninspired in your art journey and want some new life injected into it? Is your confidence in your abilities low? Do you feel you are wasting your time with art but you really love it when you are doing it? Are you studying and repeatedly getting similar feedback/marks but are unsure how to take it to the next level? I can help you.

Art tutoring classes for a level and GCSE students. Support with technical guidance from a multidisciplinary arts background (sculpture, ceramics, casting, painting, illustration), concept, research and writing to help achieve your full potential in your assessments. I also offer guidance with creating impactful portfolios for university and art foundation applications. I am happy to work online or in my studio space if you’d prefer in person technical support with techniques.
A bit about me: I have BA in fine art and specialise in sculpture and installation, and have explored and still enjoy many other medium throughout my career. I’m really enthusiastic about sharing creative understanding and supporting developing artists. I also have a wide range of interests and inspirations, so if your looking into a topic, chances are myself or one of the artists I’ve worked with has most likely researched it! .

What is a live performance mentor?

A live performance mentor supports theatremakers and live performance artists in the realisation of their vision, assessing all aspects of your performance and guiding you to make original and intelligent decisions in your work.

Why are live performance mentors useful?

Having deeply researched a vast range of performance styles, techniques and training types, a live performance mentor is aware of current and historical trends and methodologies within the industry and can inspire your creativity and maintain accuracy and artistic integrity in your performances.

For the past eight years, I’ve worked as a technician and tutor at the Royal College of Art and UAL, supporting students in fashion, fine art, and product design with their Rhino and Blender projects.

Before that, I worked as a model maker, and now I’m focused on teaching and creating fine art.

Blender.
I offer instruction in creating detailed static renderings, producing digital models ready for 3D printing, and understanding Blender’s workflows for a professional finish.

Rhino.
I'll help you navigate Rhino’s precision tools, preparing your designs for 3D printing and CNC production with an emphasis on detail and accuracy.

Skill Building:
I can guide you through both foundational and advanced techniques in Blender or Rhino, ensuring you develop a strong understanding of the software’s tools and workflows. We'll focus on the areas that best support your creative goals, whether you're looking to create detailed models for product design, render static images for fashion concepts, or develop sculptures for fine art.

Project Development:
If you're working on a specific project, I can support you at each stage—from initial concept and digital modeling to preparing files for 3D printing or CNC fabrication. We'll explore ways to optimize your designs and troubleshoot technical challenges, ensuring your final output aligns with your creative vision.

Observational drawing from life - architectural and townscape, natural and landscape subjects.

I'm Also happy to work from the comfort of a space identified by yourself - a home or studio - anywhere you would like to work (including my own home, if you prefer)

Painting - also able to offer 'from life' lessons, but it is probably more appropriate to work inside, for this.

Art is a means of expression for the mind. Through art, we are able to start to realise our dreams, imaginations and visions.

During this class, you will be guided on how to develop ideas into tangible objects which then aids you in communicating your dreams, imaginations and visions. The class also empowers you to be daring in your approaches through inviting you to test media, approaches and techniques.

Learn rigorous technique first, and THEN break the rules.

As a classically trained artist in drawing and painting, I offer private tutoring that emphasizes mastering the fundamentals to develop accomplished, technically skilled artists who can confidently express their creativity. My approach is structured, rigorous, and designed to push students to achieve their best. While some may find my method strict, I believe in teaching the rules thoroughly so that you can confidently break them later.

What I Offer:
Foundational Skills: Strengthen your abilities in line work, value, proportion, perspective, and texture to build a robust technical base.
Composition & Framing: Understand how to structure engaging artwork through thoughtful layout, balance, and spatial design.
Rigorous Critique: Receive honest, constructive feedback to identify areas for growth and refine your individual hand.
Unique Assignments with Clear Goals: Each project is tailored to address specific skills or concepts: contrast, scale, accuracy, perspective, and still life vs narrative-driven styles are just a few examples.

Diverse Areas of Focus: Explore various disciplines, including:
2D design
Still-life
Architectural drawing
Human anatomy and figure drawing
Portrait drawing
Illustration
Media and Techniques:
I guide students in mastering traditional drawing media, including graphite, charcoal, conte, pen and ink, and technical pens. Additionally, if the student progresses, I will offer opportunities to explore printmaking techniques such as silverpoint, etching, and linocut to expand their artistic repertoire.

My Approach and Expectations:
I teach with the belief that discipline and dedication are essential for artistic growth. My sessions combine hands-on demonstrations, guided practice, and critical discussions to ensure students gain a comprehensive understanding of both technical and conceptual aspects of drawing. While I set high expectations, I also offer the support and tools needed for students to rise to the challenge.
After most sessions, I assign homework to be completed by the next class. I certainly expect my younger students especially to complete these assignments. While my lessons are technical and follow strict parameters, there is plenty of opportunity for students to choose their own subjects and designs.
I also highly recommend my student take excellent notes during my demonstrations and instruction time. I will always share my own notes and sketch journals so the student has a goal in mind. After a section of tuition has been completed (equal to a half term) I examine the notes and give feedback.

Who Can Benefit:
Beginners aiming to establish strong technical foundations
Intermediate students refining their composition and conceptual skills
Advanced artists seeking rigorous critique and structured challenges
Portfolio builders preparing for art schools or professional opportunities
With a focus on both mastery and creativity, I help students develop the skills and confidence to create meaningful, rule-breaking artwork.

I’m a passionate artist with a background in architecture, specializing in teaching drawing, sketching, and painting. My lessons combine technical skills like perspective and composition with creative exploration, tailored to each student’s style and goals. I aim to inspire confidence and creativity, helping learners unlock their full artistic potential.

Being able to bring into existence a beautiful art piece the exact way you perceive it is an exceptional feat. I specialise in the realm of realism and surrealism - and I would like to help others do the same.

In my classes, you will learn the basics of sketching realistic features of people, animals and locations. Building realism through different mediums and techniques, regardless of what level you are in this class will help you reach your realism ideals. No previous experience required, these classes are for anyone with personal artistic goals.
