How do we do what we do?

In class, you will be asked to do a tonal sketch of your chosen portrait using just the black and white chalks and a black charcoal pencil. Don't worry, you won't have to draw it out from scratch, you will begin with what we call a template of your portrait, which is a very light image transferred onto a velvety paper called velour.
Each photograph you follow has been specially colour separated and drawn out and will help you to see where you need to go next. Mixing your warm colours on top of your cool colours will help you to understand how colours work together and how important it is to use base tones such as the blue as in photograph 2. The end result will be a beautifully detailed portrait that you can show your friends and family. A3 clip frames are supplied with every art class you take to put your masterpiece in and start your own gallery at home! How exciting is that! Book in now |
Recommended by schools as part of extra curriculum activities.
Once framed your portraits can go straight up on your wall when you get home! A3 Clip frames are included in your session.

Give your young artists a real treat with our 2 hour pastel workshops. These classes run every school holiday with nearly 50 different animal portraits to choose from. Whether your child excels in art or not, they will be amazed at their new found talent! Ages are between 6 up (6 year olds must be accompanied by a paying/participating adult).
These Art Class Gift Vouchers are a great idea for whenever you need that last minute gift, or just to surprise someone as a special treat!
Why not print off the voucher and give as a unique gift to a young artist you know! They'll absolutely love you for it! They can be used any time of the year! All classes must be booked prior to attending class and unless pre-purchased directly from Alison, payments are always made on the day of class. |
When to give something Extra Special

When you're short of unique idea's, this one will really hit the spot!
Who do you know who'd like a portrait of their pet, drawn by the young artist in the family?
Now thats
Special!
Let me know in good time to get these ones done as I have to colour separate by hand the four overlays of the portrait, photograph each stage and print out.
Call me if you'd like to know more.
