Weekly Classes & Year Long Courses at
Long House Studios

From October to June we offer three days of weekly classes. From October 2026 this will increase to five days. 

​

This year Wednesdays and Fridays are devoted to our new course,  'The Artist's Year'. It runs one day a week for the full year (with half term and holiday breaks at Christmas and Easter)  and is an intensive and inspiring course for you to develop your skills across a range of media and to discern your own creative practice. From October 2026 there will also be The Artist's Year, Year 2, for those who have completed Year 1 and want to continue developing their creative practice.

​

Starting in October 2026 are two new courses; The Skills Year on Tuesdays and The Artist's Year ONLINE on Mondays. 

Thursday Half Day classes are designed as Introductions to Drawing and Painting, either mornings or afternoons, and are aimed at those of you who are just starting out on your artistic journey, or who need a structured programme to help you make progress.   

​

I also run occasional Five Week Short Courses based around a theme. These will run for five consecutive weeks on a particular day - for example five consecutive Mondays.  Each course will start with an idea which will be explored and developed over the five days. The course will progress in response to the ideas and discoveries of the participants, so it will be an exciting creative journey! These courses will be especially suitable for more confident artists ready for some creative challenge and risk taking who cannot commit to a whole 'Artist's Year'.  Sign up for our newsletter so you are alerted as I add these to the website.
