People & Portrait Studio

A monthly studio for exploring the clothed figure and portrait

This is a space for artists who want to get better at painting people—while still developing their own way of working.

Each month, we focus on one essential aspect of the figure or portrait, from structure and proportion through to colour, light, and finish.

You’ll learn the technical side, then apply it through your own painting practice—building skill in a way that actually sticks.

This isn’t about rushing or producing perfect work.

It’s about learning how to see, building consistency, and finishing pieces with more confidence over time.

Inside the studio

   •   A monthly video demo focused on a key skill

   •   A guided painting challenge with carefully selected reference images

   •   A live Zoom session for feedback, questions, and discussion

   •   A small, supportive community of artists working alongside you

You can work at your own pace—but you won’t be working alone.

⸻

This is for you if:

   •   You want to improve your figure or portrait painting

   •   Your work feels inconsistent and you want a clearer process

   •   You start pieces but struggle to bring them to a finish

   •   You want guidance without losing your personal style

⸻

Over time, you’ll build:

   •   A stronger understanding of structure, light, and colour

   •   More confidence in your decisions while painting

   •   A growing body of finished work you feel proud of
