Dear everyone,

Summer is upon us at last! But you don't have to miss out on your art fun or art courses! 

I'm exhibiting in East Sussex this month and also teaching lots of summer school one day classes for Adult Learning Lewisham. 

I'll also be teaching an independent one off Exploring Creativity class at the end of July, before a break in August. 

The courses I'm teaching at Adult Learning Lewisham from September will be live to book tomorrow! 

And this Tuesday there's a final 5 week life drawing online before the summer break. This is an independent class that I run via zoom:

To book a place or find out more send an email to me vox@joart.info - you can also join mid way through the course, or take one or two sessions at a reduced rate, let me know if you'd like to arrange that.

My other private class is a one off Exploring Creativity class that will take place on July 26th, 10am - 1pm on zoom. We'll explore the work of UK based contemporary abstract artist Dragomir Misina. The cost is pay what you can, maximum £35, minimum £10. Please email me for more details.

Booking for September classes at AdultLearning Lewisham opens tomorrow, Monday 27th of July. Courses I'll be teaching there include Wednesday evening life drawing and painting, Thursday afternoon and Thursday evening drawing and personal projects, Friday morning studio time and Friday afternoon Watercolour Made Easy, as well as a variety of Super Art Saturdays and Life Drawing all dayers one Saturday every month. There's loads to choose from, so head over to the website to have a look!
