Stella Shaw.  Artist, founder & course leader at Painting Zone

I studied fine art painting at the University of the West of England in the 1990s, followed by an MA at the University of Wales Institute. I love painting and I passionately believe in the importance of creativity to everyone's happiness. If you are an adult looking to develop your creative or artistic skills, I would welcome the chance to support you. I became an art tutor during the late nineties and founded Painting Zone Art Courses in 2013, with the aim of providing a creative space  to support developing artists. Participants have said that Painting Zone classes are fun as well as providing strong technical guidance in picture-making and problem-solving. They provide an oasis of calm and a strong meditative stillness during group painting sessions. This atmosphere lends itself to promoting friendships and a mutually supportive learning experience.
