About Me
Hi! I'm Charlotte, a passionate realistic artist who specialises in painting the subjects I love most: animals, food and the occasional human.
My journey as an artist began during my school years. Growing up in the Cotswolds, I often draw inspiration from the wildlife in my surroundings. Initially, I aspired to become a vet, until one day I decided to sketch a pig. The reaction from those around me, with my own satisfaction and enjoyment, sparked my decision to pursue a career as an artist.
I have now reached a point where I'm excited to pass on my knowledge through teaching and help others achieve their dreams as an artist.
COURSE CONTENT
This course is structured into a comprehensive series of video lessons, where Iâll guide you through my complete painting process from initial setup to the final touches. Iâll walk you through brush control, colour mixing, oiling out, varnishing, and working on different surfaces, and we will practice essential techniques such as layering, the fat-over-lean rule, glazing, and refining details, ensuring your paintings achieve a polished, professional finish.
Throughout the course, weâll work on four full-length painting tutorials: a still life, two dog portraits, and a stag painting, all accompanied by a reference image pack. Youâll also gain insights into creating social media content, learning how to film, edit, and share your work effectively on Instagram and TikTok. A dedicated module on pricing and commissions will guide you through structuring your prices, scaling costs, and managing client communication.
Finally, youâll learn how to properly finalise your artwork â signing, varnishing, packaging, framing, and creating certificates of authenticity. With lifetime access, dedicated support, a private student community, and downloadable resources, this course provides everything you need to refine your skills and grow your artistic practice.
