In-Person Art Classes (Starting September 2025)

All classes take place every Thursday evening, during school term time, at Sheldon Road Church, Audley Road, Chippenham. 

There are two different sets of classes on alternating Thursdays, and dates for them all can be found here :

Every Other Thursday:

KIDS Drawing & Painting Class (Ages 6–11 yrs)

Time: 6:00–7:00 PM (Every other Thursday)

  • A fun, confidence-building class where kids help choose what we draw or paint each week.

  • We take turns choosing the subject, so everyone gets to explore something they love. We learn to draw step by step, then bring it to life in bright, happy colours. All materials are included.

  • Perfect for boosting confidence and creativity in a gentle, supportive way.

  • Price: £30/month (includes all materials)

ADULTS Beginner Art Class

Time: 7:15–9:15 PM (Every other Thursday)

  • A calm, friendly class for total beginners or anyone returning to art after a break. From September, we will explore portraits, and then pallet knife work, and then anything else the group fancies. It’s mainly paint along style, so I can show you exactly how to draw and paint, and I will guide and advise as we go along.

  • You bring your own materials (a list will be provided), though I always have a few spares if you forget something or are just getting started.

  • Price: £30/month (includes access to the online Learning Hub with class recordings)

Alternating Thursdays:

KIDS Sketching Class (Ages 10+ yrs)

Time: 6:00–7:00 PM (Alternating Thursdays)

  • A relaxed drawing club focused on observation, shading, and learning how to really see like an artist. Every now and then, we get out the paints too, but the focus is on sketching and seeing in new ways.

  • The students help shape the projects, and there's no pressure - just quiet focus and fun. Students can bring their own sketchbooks and pencils if they like, or use materials provided.

  • Price: £30/month

ADULTS Next Steps Art Class

Time: 7:15 - 9:15 PM (Every other Thursday)

  • A relaxed, more independent session for those who already feel comfortable with the basics.
    You can:

  • Bring your own project and use the time as a focused space to work, with me on hand to advise

  • Or I can guide your projects to help you develop your own style and a personalised way to practise

  • You can work in any medium you choose and follow your own path with support when needed.
    You’ll need to bring your own supplies - I’ll let you know what’s useful for what you’re working on if you need me to.

Pricing:

  • £30/month per class (covers all sessions that fall in the month)

  • £45/month if attending two classes (e.g. both adults or both kids)

Switches & Flexibility:

  • Kids aged 10–12 can move up to the Sketching Club if they're ready

  • Adults are welcome to switch between beginner and advanced as needed

CHippenham Classes

Start your week with a burst of creativity!

Every other Monday morning, join us in the cosy setting of Cafe Grounded in Chippenham, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, for a relaxed, friendly art session designed to spark joy and confidence.

We’ll paint everything from cheerful animals to calming landscapes - and anything else you suggest!

 

These sessions are completely beginner-friendly. I’ll show you how to draw the subject step-by-step, then we’ll paint it together using acrylics. I’m there the whole time to guide you, encourage you, and help you bring it to life.

Whether you want to start your week with colour, meet like-minded people, or finally make time for yourself, these Paint-Alongs are the perfect creative escape.

 

Pricing:

  • £20 per session

  • £75 for a block of 5 sessions (come whenever suits you – they don’t have to be consecutive)

Perfect if you want something calming and colourful to begin your week.
