ART - Painting and drawing classes for older adults

Offering hour-long Art sessions for older adults who enjoy or have always wanted to enjoy drawing and painting but have never had the time. I offer classes in your own home that are designed to encourage gentle creativity through drawing and painting in a wide range of mediums. You can choose your own subjects, or we can choose them together, and if you want gentle guidance, it’s at hand. I will also introduce and advise you about art materials. You will definitely create beautiful and satisfying artwork at your own pace with a friendly gentle tutor.

These sessions are for those who want to spend time gently working one-on-one with an experienced tutor, and above all, enjoy themselves.

About Me

I have always loved drawing and painting and started finding ways to keep doing this from an early age. I developed a keen interest in art history and out of a sense of sheer fun started including drawings in my academic work. Responses from my tutors were so positive and rewarding that my curiosity grew, motivating me towards gaining a B.A. in Fine Art and M.A. in Art and Design in Education, to become a teacher.

However, I enjoy other forms of fun too. I love going to the cinema, travelling, reading, taking photos, and meeting new people. All of this keeps me feeling happy and optimistic about life and helps me to create Art sessions that give a real sense of satisfaction and achievement. I love learning and enabling others to enjoy art in positive, interesting, and stress-free ways. I am a sensitive, flexible, and up-beat person. I strive to make my sessions enjoyable, tailoring them to individual learning styles, interests, and previous knowledge. I love to give the people I work with, the opportunity to experience a real sense of satisfaction, joy and achievement, alongside achieving a high level of art knowledge and skill.

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 teach painting, drawing, installation art , art research and art experiments.
I believe that the art- practice is an incredible method to understand ourselves and the situations that surround us.
My students will learn how to work with several mediums, creating their own art experiments: paintings, canvases, and so on. They will also learn how to criticise an artwork in an academic way. The analysis of paintings will allow them to understand the inner them and achieve the balance in their lives.

For students that are aiming to study Art, I can help to prepare the art portfolio.

I am an experienced primary teacher so have the skills to teach effectively. However, I am also a practising artist with an MA in Fine Art and a wide knowledge of methods and skills for creating intriguing and beautiful works of art. We can work through colour, composition, subject and many other aspects of art making. I am very open to the individual needs of the student.

Hi there,

I'm Kim! I hope you’re well! Thanks for dropping by.

About the course:

I'm here to share all I've learned with students of all skill levels and age groups.

As with many things, the best way to learn is to do. I will therefore take you through the entire professional process of designing a character for an animated project - from the fundamentals of anatomy drawing, to the initial research stage to iteration sketches, all the way through to the final model sheets!

By the end, you will have created a memorable character that is unique, full of appeal, exuding personality, and ready to be animated. And you will have gained a valuable insight into the weird and wonderful world of professional character design.

---------------------------------

About me:

I am a professional character designer and illustrator from Australia, currently based in London, UK.

In 2019, I graduated with the Bachelor of Design in Animation with First Class Honours from the University of Technology, Sydney.

Since graduating, I have had the privilege of working as a character designer and animator on the Netflix animated series, ‘Adventure Beast,’ enjoyed a design internship with Cheeky Little Media, and have also had the pleasure of illustrating several children's picture books for Playtime Books.

These days, I am designing characters for Hey Daisy Moon, and have been tutoring character design, cartooning, and general drawing skills to students of all ages since 2021.

If you have a passion for bringing exciting characters to life, or just want to improve your drawing skills, I would love to help you achieve your goals! In any case, I wish you a wonderful day.
