Testimonials:
“What a fantastic 6-week oil painting course we’ve just had! Emma began with first principles and explained all about the equipment needed for painting. Her guidance on selecting a subject and starting to get that onto the canvas was very clear, she is a great teacher. Emma shared her experience and knowledge so generously, bringing in her own paintings at different stages and explaining her own process. She was so empowering and encouraging. I loved the classes and am delighted with my 2 finished paintings”. Eileen

“If you think you’re signing up just for an oil painting class, you’ll quickly discover it’s so much more.
These 6 weeks have been incredible—the atmosphere was welcoming, Emma’s guidance patient and encouraging, and every canvas told its own story. Working with oils felt therapeutic, and I left with not just a painting I’m proud of, but a deeper love for the art and a beautiful sense of community.
I’d highly recommend this class to anyone looking for a creative outlet, a mindful break, or simply quality time with inspiring people. ” Ekatherina

I did Emma’s Oil Painting for Beginners 6 week course and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Emma’s guidance through each step was with patience and good humour. She showed us lots of examples of her own work to illustrate the process yet all the while encouraging each person to develop their individual style. I enjoyed meeting and chatting with the other participants and seeing the evolving artwork take shape. I’ll have happy memories of this class for a long time to come. Anne.
