Art Tutoring
As well as being a practicing artist, I am an experienced freelance art educator working with students at every stage of education, including school age, degree, postgraduate level and adult learning. I also offer specialism in teaching practical art workshops remotely, with an emphasise on providing highly interactive and engaging sessions online. I’m a member of faculty at the Royal Drawing School, where I have taught on the Young Artists Programme since 2016. I also provide public courses specialising in drawing nature in the field, previous workshops include drawing at sea, wild geese on the Danish Wadden Sea and neotropical wildlife in the Peruvian Amazon.
“Chris leads his workshops in such a friendly way that the time just slips away. By the end you’ve had a series of really great experiences, that give you a real sense of achievement”
