Information about Christopher
I am a professional artist and teacher specialising in classical and representational drawing and painting methods. My teaching and art studios are conveniently situated in central Clapham close to clapham junction station. My teaching program balances studio and home study while understanding that the modern world can get in the way of the things you would rather be doing and so is flexible to the student.
I have won numerous awards including the pastel society annual show, winning runner up young artist and the John Purcell paper award, exhibiting in both 2013 and 2015.
Also competing in the Sky arts, portrait artist of the year 2014, as well as being asked to exhibit in the Federation of British Artists, Futures exhibition in 2016 winning the Jacksons One To Watch prize
Availability: I am available most evenings and weekends, although due to commission commitments this can change accordingly.
Willing to travel: 5 miles
Experience: After leaving university of Falmouth I wanted to develop my traditional drawing and painting skills and so I decided to not take a place on a fine arts degree. Instead I have studied classical art for over 6 years, and have been professional for 4 years. During those 4 years I have taught at London Fine Art Studios, one of the handful of schools in the UK to still teach classical and representational art. This invaluable experience has allowed me to develop a private teaching program which breaks down the daunting prospect of accurate representational drawing into manageable achievable steps.
My methods also allow for an easy transition into traditional oil painting techniques and will show students what materials to invest in and which to avoid at all costs.

Chris is a fantastic teacher who was able to design a curriculum to help me improve my understanding of drawing fundamentals. I wouldn`t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for drawing or painting instruction.

I had my first two-hour lesson with Christopher as a rather nervous, beginner. He teaches using a very straightforward step-by-step approach and, by the end, I felt quite confident in being able to draw in proportion and in using perspective. I`ve practised the technique at home and am really pleased with what I am able to achieve after just one lesson.

Chris is wonderful. He is teaching my son at home and Victor just asked for an extra hour with Chris as he loves the classes so much.
