ONLINE Courses summary:
We have moved ONLINE - yet the personable feel of the courses has been fully retained and the highly creative atmosphere is ever present!

Cleo Harrington MA (RCA) founded ' Art in the Village ®TM in 2007 because she had a passion for teaching people how to immerse themselves in a richly creative atmosphere and learn new ways to approach drawing & painting. She wanted to break down the barriers some people feel when trying to create.

Cleo has a Masters Degree in Art from the RCA and also a PTLLS teaching qualification. She has been teaching for over 16 years in adult education, and in that time, has developed a unique range of drawing and painting exercises which really help students to progress. All these exercises have been built around Cleo's own learning at the Royal College and her fine art degree course training too. The courses Cleo has created, are all designed to be friendly, non competitive and to provide everyone with helpful feedback.

Art in the Village ® TM courses adopt a wide variety of media and we really help you to improve your drawing and painting skills. We train you to observe in much GREATER DETAIL and focus. We are confident that our courses are the best for improving mark making skills and your artists' eye. unlike other arts classes, we don't get you to copy pictures from books, we offer engaging and unique art class content with vibrant STILL - LIFE arrangements, art history segments and at the end of some online 10 x week courses you will have the chance to draw a life model 'Live' ONLINE.
