🍨 Summer Workshops have been tantalising! 🍦

🎨 Here are a few highlights of the projects and imagination in my Summer Art Workshop!

☀️ With only a couple of weeks of the holidays left, come and join us for a creative session.

🏖️ Away on holiday? Don’t worry, you can sign up for a Trail Class starting in September, in my afterschool weekly art classes (and on Saturdays too!)

🍂 Autumn Term Weekly Classes are fast approaching! 🍂

🎨 Why not start your child’s School Term with a wonderful and enriching afterschool club, where art mediums can be explored, imagination is pulled in all directions and new friends are there to be made!

🖼️ Weekly tuition is a fantastic way to create a healthy routine, and in the words of many of my students, “art-K is my favourite part of the week!”

🤩 We work on 2 projects per class, over the term, meaning students can take their time, learn new skills, and paint or build projects that they will LOVE to take home and feel proud about!

📍 At art-K Smithdown we work in acrylics, watercolours, clay, inks, paper-mache, mixed media, pastels and more!
📍 Classes are mixed ages 6-16 years old
📍 I have a separate Home Education class on Thursdays at 13:00
📍 I have a specific 11+ class (also suitable for GCSE and A-Level) on Tuesdays at 17:50
📍 You can book a Trial class to see how you like it, then book for the full term!
📍 I accept Childcare Vouchers

☀️ To my returning students, I can’t wait to see you all soon, and to my new students, I am so looking forward to getting to know you.

💚 Any questions, get in touch!

🖼️ Adult Oil Paintings on display!! 🖼️

I’m SO proud of my students who have just finished their Week 3 in my 4 Week Beginner Oil Paintings Course that I’ve had to put their drying work in the window this evening!!🪟 🐚

Can’t wait to take photos of them in the daylight but they’re too good to not share.

We have gone from spending the first two weeks learning skills and being very guided by myself to a more independent lesson this week. 🐚

I curate the course to give group teaching with lots of 1-2-1 feedback. 👩‍🏫

Curious? I have the same 4 week oil painting course repeating - starting in October! 🎨 Look up art-K Smithdown adults to find the link on my website or message me for details!

I also run evening adult classes for drop ins or weekly classes, where I design the curriculum around you and your goals! 🌟

🤔 How many facial expressions do teachers pull in a lesson? 🤔

🤩 Turns out, quite a few..!

🌞 It’s so important that when I’m teaching or talking to my students they know they have my FULL attention, because their words, questions, observations and stories are matter! 💚

Here in my art-K Smithdown Studio, I think it would be fair to say there is a deep respect and enthusiasm between me and my students teacher-student relationship, we really love our art classes, our learning and being authentically ourselves. 😃

Come and see for yourself, I have Summer Workshops every week this August (also open on Inset day!) and weekly Autumn Term lessons starts soon, on the first week of September. 🍂

🐞 Lily pads and bugs! 🐞 Same projects, two different aged students! 🍃

These were made over 4 hours in my Summer Holiday Art Workshops! Students used clay, learnt how to roll and shape their leaves, then how to score and blend, to create secure artworks! A few layers of paint and a beautiful creation to take home.

I’m open all holiday, on selected days, come and join the fun!
