• A positive, social, guided class where participants can explore basic sketching tasks at their own pace. I will meet you at your skill level and give meaningful, positive guidance. Come and experience the relaxing, flow state of creative pursuits. Beginner classes in still life (The Objects of Life) and portrait drawing (Features of the Face) are ongoing from September onwards.

  • Watercolour painting is all about controlling the medium. We will explore materials, colour, tints, tones plus various techniques. Explore the process and use your new-found skills in our bi-weekly Autumn classes (Saturday / Monday* / Wednesday). *This class is weekly.

  • Through out the Spring/Summer I have offered weekly outdoor sessions. Join us as the last summer days wind down as we explore landscapes, architecture and natural areas in and around the Stamford area. Then join us for my Autumn/Winter indoor art classes that will help you develop sketching and painting skills for next years’ En Plein Air sessions.

  • These 3 hour workshops and classes offer a fantastic opportunity to explore diverse materials and techniques. Just like the drawing sessions, our core focus remains on the joy of learning, connecting with others, and creating meaningful artwork. Message or call 07722377782 to sign up for monthly workshops.

  • Do you have a celebration coming up? Would you like an art activity for your event? Would your art group like to explore a specific material or technique? I am available for bespoke workshops. Contact me for details. 07722377782.

“I have learned lots of techniques from Carol...which has improved my drawing skills. We are also encouraged to learn from each other, comparing how we have all used and adapted the techniques. And the absolute bonus is the tea, biscuits and chat!”
— Tess J.

Class offerings

“After only a couple of weeks my knowledge and understanding of drawing has excelled.

The groups are relaxing,informative and a huge amount of fun.
Carol gets to know you and your level of drawing and targets any areas that she can support you.

I thoroughly look forward to each lesson, and always come away with lots of confidence looking forward to the next lesson and new challenges.

Carol has so much patience and I feel I have learnt so much.
I feel very relaxed after each session”
— Susan C., Beginner Drawing class participant
