Teaching

Liv has 10 years experience of drawing and painting classes. They are usually held in the artists' studio in small friendly groups of all abilities. Individual tuition is given in all media.

Through a programme of creative exercises and projects, each person is encouraged to develop their unique potential.

Constant assessment and discussions are designed to strengthen confidence and independence helping to focus direction.

Life Drawing

Life drawing is a wonderful way of investigating space with infinite variations on shape and form. It is the most demanding form of drawing and the fastest way of increasing your skill as an artist.

Classes run on special days.

Painting Holidays

The inspiration people get from being in a different country is miraculous and has a slow release effect for a long time afterwards. Colours and sights of new places can often bring up sensory and expressive responses which are totally surprising.

Liv has previously run week-long painting holidays in locations like Morocco, Spain, Turkey and France which were very successful.

AB from Bedford Park - As a mere beginner I found Olivia's classes both challenging and enjoyable, she teaches by encouragement and stimulates progress by setting new goals which stretch ability and imagination.

DT from Putney - I am a professional artist with many years experience. Olivia helped me regain my confidence after a long break and I am now preparing for an exhibition.
