Stella Shaw
Artist, founder & course leader at Painting Zone
I love painting and I passionately believe in the importance of creativity to everyone's happiness. I moved to Cirencester from Bristol in Jan 2020, and I have since then fully succumbed to the magnetic charms of this delightful town. I was lucky to acquire 4 Beeches Workshops in during 2020, where I have since based my own painting practice. For many years I have taught painting skills classes and tutorials to adults in Bristol and London. I founded "Painting Zone Art Workshops" in 2013, with the aim of providing a creative space, an inspiring environment and experienced painting tuition, to support the development of starting or more experienced artists. Painting Zone classes are designed to be fun and fulfilling, with structured learning experiences tailored towards individual artistic learning needs and finished paintings. They can provide an oasis of calm within a busy life. This atmosphere lends itself towards friendship within mutually supportive learning and shared enjoyment. Painting courses are scheduled throughout the year at 4 Beeches Workshops and classes are small and supportive.Free taster classes are offered regularly through each term.

If you would like to receive occasional information about new physical course dates, non-residential retreat-style weekends, individual and online tuition, please subscribe to the Email list on the Welcome page. I very much look forward to painting with you!
