​Is This Class for Me?
 Were you never taught art techniques as a child? Did it feel as if you were just handed a pencil and told to “draw something”? If so you might think art is only for the “naturally talented." but we’re here to change that! Like a lot of people we were never taught much art at school and only started to learn key techniques much later at art college. Anyone can learn to draw and paint with the right guidance. Our classes teach practical skills to help you put what you see onto paper, no matter your starting point
