Painting Tutor, Teacher, Instructor
My name is B. Oluwafemi, a Fine Artist, and a major promoter of African arts. I hail from Ijumu local government area of Kogi state Nigeria with a Degree in Fine Arts (specialty in Art History). I am currently running my Masters in Fine Arts at the UniversityFor The Creative Arts Farnham UK. I also run the Artmazing studios where we offer a wide range of services from murals, graffiti, illustrations, digital arts, body arts and art consultancy with the sole goal of promoting African Arts.
I grew up in Zaria, Kaduna where I got my Degree from Ahmadu Bello University. I began my career as a Makeup Artist after completing my National youth service assignment in Daura, Katsina state and subsequently decided to go into full time art practice. I have always been an experimental person and in my artistry, I decided to infuse Traditional African Art into urban arts to create an Afro-centric modern synergy. My works can attest to this. From completion of my NYSC till date I have worked on several commissioned art projects in Abuja. Some of these projects can be seen in popular locations I Abuja like Jabi Boat Club, Discovery Museum, Trukadero, The Nigerian Air Force, Barlance Abuja, Whiskey Mistress, Nigerian Naval Recreation Center, The Rochas Foundation but the highlight will have to be a graffiti job commissioned for the Queen’s Birthday.
I am also a renowned body artist, stretching the boundaries with lines and African motifs using the human skin as a canvas, to create beautiful and stunning patterns. I have been hosted in several exhibitions and fairs where I worked on body art models and enthusiasts.
I work from my studio space/office where you will mostly always find me sketching out designs on my iPad or painting on a canvas. As far as inspiration, I pick inspiration from any and everything, ranging from works of artists I revere to a simple conversation.
Art is my one sole primary focus and that is why I always seek to give it my all. Art is a voice to me, my form of expression, it speaks when I have no words. It is the easiest way I pass messages on lots of issues. I plan to contribute to my field by using art to tell my African story and discovering new and improved ways to better my country, continent and the world at large.

My background in education is heavily centred around a student-led approach. Teaching art for over 12 years to learners with diverse backgrounds, ages, and abilities, originally starting as a private tutor educating students either studying for GCSEs, A levels, building portfolios for universities, or mature students looking to enhance their technical ability and practice
Alongside my private work, I have taught in group environments to people with learning difficulties and epilepsy at local charities such as 'The Meath Epilepsy Charity' and 'Arthouse Unlimitied' in Godalming. In recent years, my experience in this sector has evolved to teach learners with ADHD, autism, and physical and mental disabilities at establishments such as the Disability Initiative in Camberley.
With this experience, I have learned an assortment of instructional techniques that enable me to connect with different learners on their own individual paths. Due to the nature of the charity workshops, clients are encouraged to create their own personal response to subject matter, a project theme, or even their own personal projects they want to complete for themselves. The versatility of these sessions allows for more time with each individual, empowering them and infusing much-needed knowledge to various different clients with their own unique creativity.
My private and group tutoring roles have been mostly with adults, with vastly different experiences and knowledge. I have learned invaluable interpersonal skills, techniques, and patience while educating, working on group projects, or participating in group discussion. I find my Fine Art Degree background in technical realism a great advantage in helping those who need expert advice on creating realistic art, mixing tones, and perspective. Though my warm and open-minded nature enables exploration with my students to enjoy art for the process as well as the end product. I feel this aspect has been the most important in my experience, as with a group of diverse learners with their own project ideas in mind, the process has to be enjoyable and therapeutic enough for them to return in the future. To explore oneself through creativity is as important for a student studying a degree as it is for a casual beginner.
I believe my experience in teaching would be beneficial to any student wanting to progress their work at any level. While having an ongoing art practice for over 15 years, with a multitude of technical abilities and vast experience tutoring people with different learning capacities, I know I'd be beneficial for any learner of mixed artistic capabilities and interests.

Having worked as a secondary school Art teacher for the past 4 years, I have a wealth of knowledge and understanding about the national cirriculum and what is expected from studnets through KS3-5. I have developed a range of schemes of work that cover drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture and Art history. I work closely with A Level students to develop coursework projects and portfolios for university applications, as well. I have also worked as a private art tutor for GCSE students who needed further one to one assistance on thier coursework projects and to refine thier painting, drawing and art analysis work.
Previous to my teaching career I worked as a freelance Illustrator, producing work for children's books and my own private collections.

Hi! My name is Olha and I am an artist and art tutor. I've been doing art since I was a child. Since then, I've tried numerous ways and techniques of drawing, painting and crafting. I have an experience in oil, acrylic, gouache and watelocour painting, pencil, charcoal and pastels drawing, sculpting and so on. I created murals in private apartments, a hospital, a kindergarten, and a church. I've finished my bachelor's degree in Fine Arts and now I'm studying Model Making for Film and TV. But I still make mistakes, sometimes I have blank page syndrome, sometimes I am just lazy, another time I have a wild inspiration in the middle of the night. So feel free to drop me a message, I'm more than happy to discuss and help others in their artistic paths.

Art is for everyone! It's down to confidence, practise and allowing yourself to make mistakes!
Observation is key exploring different mark making and you're off to a good start.
It doesn't matter if you think you can't draw. If you are new to drawing I will show you simple techniques to help you gain the confidence you need.
If you are a GCSE art student or studying A level Art, I can give you extra support to get you through and help you gain the higher grades.

I am a practising artist with 18 years’ teaching experience (15 years as Head/Director of art) I can support all pupils and adult learners at any level. I currently work as Director of Faculty in one of the UK’s leading Independent Boarding Schools. (Fine art was the best performing subject in my school at A Level Summer 2019.)
Those wishing to make the next step into Further or Higher education will benefit from additional support to enrich their body of work for portfolio interview. I work with GCSE and A Level pupils to help improve their coursework.
Or perhaps you’ve always wanted to improve your drawing or painting skills simply for pleasure and to learn the rudiments of direct observational study; life drawing has been a mainstay for as long as I can remember, and hundreds of younger learners and senior artists have benefitted from private tuition since I started teaching.
The discipline of drawing and art practice in general, rewards individuals with the sanctuary of mindfulness in addition to the benefit of skill-based progress
I can teach across all media to groups or individuals – even demonstrate how to throw a pot! – I am happy to receive bespoke enquiries.
"Stuart is a great teacher, he always makes every class interesting & different each week, inspired us by using various materials & techniques in different ways stretching our www.*** is always positive with his criticism which encouraged you to produce some great works, this makes the classes enjoyable discussing our work together, feeling the group were a team.
His interest & encouragement has inspired me to continue with life drawing. "
Anita Page
"If I have any regret of my time being tutored by Stuart it is that I only joined his group a year before he moved away from Bury St Edmunds yet even in that short time with his remarkable skills as a teacher I found my drawing skills generally; and figure drawing skills in particular; improved considerably. Because of his instruction and guidance and the foundation it gave me my art has developed and evolved to embrace most media and other genre. I will always be grateful to him."
Paul Lewins
"Stuart manages to bring variety in his approach to classes. Some weeks he positions tables propped upright on their ends and we work in various media on paper the full size of the model. Sometimes we draw a model who moves in various ways in rotation. Our still life evenings are also different, he brings in a pigs head for us to draw, and also a brace of pheasants. Stuart is always very encouraging. He covers all the basics in teaching us how to measure the body by eye, by aligning different parts of the body, and demonstrates different media techniques. "
Caroline Bell
"Stuart came with enthusiasm and willingness to share his skills. Within the group hw was able to bring out individual artistic talents. He gave us confidence to attempt many different techniques.
My art abilities are definitely built on groundings set by him"

Well over 40 years workshop knowledge of historical printing methods, and taught in Adult education [printing art techniques] practical workshops.
Also, shown artwork in many unique heritage properties in public facing context, and enjoys passing on his knowledge to others, in an informal relaxed manner. Believe strongly in non vocational [none exam based] learning - primarily to learn a skill is in itself a great achievement, and to pass that knowledge on to others [adult education] is a great honour for myself as expert tutor. Myt specialism is ideally the adult education sector which is [I feel] often overlooked these days.
As a one-time 'full time' student, and then part time, myself at colleges, years ago - I have the real world understanding of learning and what students are looking for in being taught new skills and I enjoy purveying my own knowledge to others.
