Our Art clubs (for ages 5+ to adults) are always a great success and some of the work coming out lately from the young Artists is enough to leave everyone in awe at the talent that exists. Everyone has this talent, we just have a unique way of bringing out their skills during our sessions.

Our current online art club is focused on Acrylic Painting – our first project was to explore the colours and beautiful detail in an eye! Look at these fab images from some of the students that attended!

This weekend we made a start on a sunset painting, due to add details next lesson. This was a very different style of painting to our previous small detail projects. From the few students who have currently shared their paintings so far, they look absolutely on target to look stunning frame-able pieces!

Images are carefully chosen to enable the students to learn different techniques with each project. We still have one more project to complete for the acrylics course!

Our summer course on Watercolours is just round the corner. It’s due to start on Sunday 2nd Aug and run for 5 Sundays from 2-4pm. Our last few places are remaining. If you are keen to book, do so ASAP. Remember that costs are per household. You only have to register one of the children.

What will the new art club members need for the new course?

We like all our students to have similar products to the ones we will use in class. For this particular course, the material cost will be no more than £35
