My Studio & the home of

Diana's Happiness GUARANTEE:
Because I cannot bear the thought of anyone being tied into 9 weeks of classes they are not enjoying...
If, after your first class you decide you totally hate Discoveries - or me (sniff),
I will TOTALLY REFUND your term's fees.

Lesson times Term 4:
Because spaces only become available after current students get sick of me and leave, there are typically very few new spaces available each term. Nice for me but hard for new students.
I have a wait list for most sessions so please
contact me directly if keen or if you have any questions.
~ First Steps - 101 ~
Structured lessons designed to introduce students to a mix of drawing, shading, colour mixing & brush techniques.
This programme is designed around one simple question - "What was I wanting (& needing) in Art Lessons when I first started out on my Arty journey?
I feel a wee bit like a magician's cheat ‘unmystifing’ for students just how 'learnable' many art techniques are but hey,
I can live with that :-)
101 Class:
No 101 class term 4, 2022
~ First Steps - 102 ~
Building upon what we learned in Term 1, this term builds on our understanding of composition and introduces a number of 'subjects' including still life, landscapes to furry friend painting.
102 Class:
No 102 class term 4, 2022
