Personal Art Retreat: 1-to-1 Painting Experience £275

 

For a one-to-one day of tuition in acrylic and gouache painting

£275 One- to- one

This is a rare opportunity to work closely with me in my private home studio in Halsall, Lancashire.

Designed as a creative retreat rather than a traditional class, this one-to-one day offers uninterrupted time to paint, reflect, and reconnect with your creativity in a calm, focused and deeply supportive setting.

Immerse yourself in a day of expansive skies, expressive landscapes and quiet creativity.

I’m Michelle — a sky and landscape proffestional artist — and I host a limited number of private tuition days each year. These sessions are intentionally intimate and unhurried, allowing space for both technical growth and personal restoration.

Art has long been associated with lowering stress and calming the nervous system, and this day is designed not only to strengthen your technique, but to restore clarity and confidence.

What You’ll Experience

Throughout the day, I will share my personal approach to painting skies and large-scale landscapes.​ guiding you gently from a blank canvas to a finished statement piece. You’ll learn how to paint the atmospherers, light and it's movement, We will be using  acrylics  and Gouache and it's benefits building  your confidence as your painting evolves. Whether you are new to art or returning to it after many years, you will be supported with thoughtful, one-to-one guidance in a relaxed and encouraging setting.

You will learn:

• How to create atmosphere and depth
• Capturing light and movement in the sky
• Layering techniques in acrylic
• The versatility and softness of gouache
• Building confidence as your painting evolves

Working from a blank canvas, you will be guided step-by-step towards a finished statement piece — something truly personal to take home and display with pride.

Whether you are completely new to painting or returning after many years, the day is tailored entirely to you.

​We  will begin around 10am and paint through until we have lunch and continue until around 3:30pm, allowing plenty of time to fully immerse yourself in the process.  ensures your artwork will be dry and ready to take home with you — a beautiful reminder of your day and something truly personal to display with pride for many years.

This, carefully curated session is a bespoke experience for every guest.
