Workshop’s mission is to make it easier and more exciting to learn new skills at home, focussing on an interactive experience that is enjoyable, accessible and, most importantly, effective.
By joining forces with Workshop, we’re bringing our art studio and top-quality teachers to you.We can teach hands-on art skills to you in your own home, providing in-depth feedback and a close community network, just as we do in the London studios.
Attending an art school, studio or atelier isn’t something everyone can do, but, whatever your commitments are, you do have the ability to learn and master all the techniques and processes required to create stunning works of art.
We’re breaking new ground in teaching the craft of drawing and painting to a community of dedicated artists in their own homes. London Fine Art Studios welcome students of all levels, providing a supportive learning environment in which to acquire new skills and develop a deeper understanding of the figurative tradition.
Art is a wonderful pursuit, helping people find internal rewards such as happiness and a sense of peace, and external rewards such as artistic recognition and an income.
Whether you are a complete beginner or a seasoned artist, this course will teach you the foundations of representational art.
With a step by step process, we will help develop your artistic skills and teach you the essential techniques of drawing and painting, re-instating the importance of tradition within contemporary art education.
