Interactive online and in-person, friendly art sessions for beginners, improvers and corporate groups

Welcome to Art Splash London
We’re Francine Lawrence and Susi Hoyle and we launched Art Splash in 2014 to teach people who think they can’t draw - to draw and paint!
Since that first step, we have successfully taught hundreds of people to draw. We teach friendly art classes, workshops, short courses and corporate sessions – both in-person and online.
We also host residential courses in Devon, Spain, Portugal and Italy.
Art Splash drawing and painting sessions are for EVERYONE.

Learn to Paint with Acrylics
So many people surprised themselves by enjoying painting their first portrait at the January session, we are running once-a-month classes by popular request! All levels welcome including beginners. If you live in London join us at our monthly Saturday in-person painting workshops in Willesden Green Studios, NW10 (Jubilee Line) please click below for more details.
The next workshop is on Saturday 12 April 2025. Book now, places are limited.
Corporate Art Sessions
Bond your team together with an art class. Our creative sessions provide a mindful break from the computer screen and allow colleagues to get to know a different side of their co-workers.
We have successfully taught in-house and online sessions for many high-profile clients including; Google UK, Orange Brand Services, Astra Zeneca, Marriott Hotel Group, Publicis London, The Brilliant Group, This Place, DLAPiper LLP, Callison RTKL and Joseph Ltd.
Watercolour Classes
Watercolour is a wonderful, versatile medium, but can be frustrating if you don’t know the three essential techniques.
Join one of our classes to get the best out of your watercolours. Learn the basic principles of applying water-based paint, and how you can make your images vibrant and dynamic.
No more wishy-washy!
We offer online and in-person classes.
