Painting for Beginners
Alexandra Ghimisi is a professional fine artist and an experienced art tutor, with over six years’ experience working in adult education. Through my teaching, I’ve seen how creative activity can be incredibly beneficial in later life. Painting offers people a sense of purpose, satisfaction, and pride, while also supporting confidence, wellbeing, and social connection. Many learners tell me they’re surprised by what they can achieve when given a relaxed and encouraging space to explore creativity.
‘Designed for adults of all abilities, these inspiring courses offer a relaxed, supportive space to explore painting and enjoy the creative process. If you’ve always wanted to paint but didn’t know where to begin, or if you’re looking to refresh your skills and loosen your style, this course is the perfect place to start.
Working mainly with acrylic paints, you will be guided step by step through essential techniques, colour mixing, and composition. Alexandra’s clear demonstrations and gentle encouragement help you build confidence while creating expressive artworks inspired by still life and landscape themes. The emphasis is on enjoyment, experimentation, and discovering your own artistic voice — not on perfection.
Each session offers a calm, social studio atmosphere where you can relax, connect with like-minded learners, and enjoy the pleasure of creating together. By the end of the course, you’ll have artworks to be proud of and the confidence to continue painting beyond the classroom.’
