Workshops
Where are the workshops held?
All in-person workshops are held at the Cornish Craft Barn, Penryn, Cornwall. Occasional outdoor urban-sketching sessions take place at other locations around Cornwall.
Do I need any experience?
No experience needed at all. Workshops are designed to be accessible for complete beginners while still engaging for more experienced artists.
What do I need to bring?
Nothing — all materials are provided. Just bring yourself and a willingness to experiment.
How long do workshops last?
Workshops typically run as half-day sessions, morning or afternoon.
How big are the groups?
Group sizes are kept small — usually no more than 8–12 people — so you get real attention and feedback throughout.
Can you run a private workshop for my group?
Yes. Get in touch to discuss private workshops for groups — birthdays, hen parties, team days, or just a group of friends wanting to paint together.
Commissions & buying art
Do you take commissions?
Yes, selectively. Get in touch via the contact page with details of what you have in mind — subject, size, and any reference images you have.
Where can I buy your original work and prints?
Original work and prints are available through the Cornish Craft Barn shop in Penryn, and coming soon online through the DSA Shop.
Online courses
Are there online courses?
Online courses covering watercolour, oils and urban sketching are coming soon. Subscribe to be the first to know when they open.
