“I used to paint…”
“I’ve always wanted to…”
“I’m not creative, but…”

My workshops are designed for people who are ready to begin again — or begin at all. You don’t need to be ‘good at art’ — just open to the joy of making. I’ll guide you through composition, brushwork, and colour choices in a way that’s freeing, fun, and skill-building.

Monday Morning Classes

.I’ve helped hundreds of students grow their confidence and creative voice — not by handing out shortcuts, but by offering a clear, supportive path grounded in solid painting technique and a deep love of art history.

We paint from real-life set-ups in my bright, inspiring studio, surrounded by fellow art lovers who “get it” — people who are also returning to their creativity or taking it further than ever before.

Whether you’re a beginner or looking to take your painting to the next level, you’ll find more than lessons here. You’ll find momentum, encouragement, and a community that celebrates your growth.

What My Students Say…

“I’ve been attending Cheryl’s art classes for over four years. These classes have not only helped me grow as an artist but also personally. Cheryl has a gift for guiding each of us on our own creative path, while also teaching solid foundational skills. I learn something new every class I attend—and that’s so rewarding. She creates a safe and inspiring space, where we’re encouraged to take risks, trust our instincts, and truly see the world differently through paint. I always leave class feeling uplifted and motivated”
