Learn to paint with me

I find the process of painting beneficial in many ways. It calms my mind, and quietens the noise. Playing with paint is therapy in itself and creating something unique and individual is highly rewarding. There are many techniques to learn along the way too, especially if you are keen to expand your skillset as a painter. Above all painting is fun. A highly visual, hands on experience that sparks the imagination, I find painting ignites the senses and the braincells. It allows you time for yourself, to embark on an activity that lets you explore colour, pattern and texture in exciting ways. I offer 1-1 tuition and workshops for groups and classes and social gatherings. Contact me at admin@charlottethompsonart.co.uk to organise a bespoke painting experience.
