Damian Callan Art Classes

★★★★★

“Damian’s studio is spacious, bright and welcoming. It provides us with everything we need to follow Damian’s lead and develop our skills. It is a safe, secure and well appointment space which provides us with a super environment in which to work. I look forward to being part of his weekly art sessions as Damian has created such a friendly and inclusive environment. The group has really bonded and everyone benefits from his suggestion that we share our work throughout each session and welcome the comments of others. Damian’s tutoring is excellent and he demonstrates best practice as a skilled teacher. His individual support and encouragement helps to progress learners at their own pace and I never feel uncertain as to where his advice will lead me as I seek to improve. Progress is a journey and not a destination and Damian is so good at supporting us on our individual journeys.”

“I loved my art classes with Damian. I am first time painter and lack confidence - Damian was just about the perfect teacher. Starting each lesson with a view on what makes great painting, Damian explained the basics very well and encouraged the use of different techniques at appropriate times. I ended up very pleased with my efforts and I know I wouldn't have done so had it not been for Damian's help.”

“Damian's art class was a bit of a revelation to me. I hadn't painted in 45 years and expected it to be a bit of a humiliation but he is so clear in his explanations, so encouraging and so skillful in giving accurate feedback, that I was really impressed with what I produced. Damian creates a safe, friendly space which encourages experimentation and confidence. Couldn't recommend the classes highly enough.”
