Behind the Easel: Experience a 1-to-1 Masterclass in My Art Studio

Nicola Hunter • 13 October 2026

There is something truly magical about spending dedicated, uninterrupted time surrounded by original art, fresh colour palettes, and natural light. While running group workshops and creative painting holidays across the UK is always a joy, some of the most rewarding moments happen right here in my Westbury studio during 1-to-1 bespoke painting sessions.

A Space Designed for Creativity

Tucked away in the historic surroundings of Westbury Arts Centre, my art studio is built to inspire. Walls framed with vibrant floral and wildlife watercolours set the tone, while warm sunlight fills the working space. When you book a 1-to-1 experience, the studio becomes a beautiful working space for the day - a calm, welcoming haven where you can relax, experiment, and paint without distractions or pressure.

Tailored Entirely to You

No two 1-to-1 sessions are the same. Before you arrive, we discuss exactly what you hope to achieve from our time together.

  • Unlocking Expression: If you already paint, we dive into watercolour painting methods - capturing atmospheric light, letting pigment flow freely, loosening up brushwork, and finding your own unique artistic signature.

What to Expect on the Day

From the moment you arrive, everything is set up and ready for you.

Throughout the day, you’ll observe live, close-up demonstrations tailored to your specific subject - whether that’s luminous botanical petals, expressive animal portraits, or dramatic light-filled compositions. You'll then put those techniques directly onto paper with immediate, hands-on guidance and encouragement every step of the way.

Ready to Step Into the Studio?

This is a wonderful opportunity for a personal time to reignite your own creative spark, a private studio day is a unique opportunity to immerse yourself fully in the world of watercolour.
