Helen Elliott Art workshops

I understand paint and the painting process, and the psychology of being an artist, and love to share the joy painting can bring. I've been sharing my skills and encouraging people to enjoy making their art for many years now, and am proud to name many now professional artists as my alumni, and would love you to join me.

I have attended training with Helen before, but not one on Journalling the Essentials, therefore I knew the course would be well planned and fun! As well as packed full of excellent advice and that I’d be pushed beyond my comfort zone!

Rosemary Oldham,

I loved being able to ask questions of someone so talented as Helen. Making new art friends. Daily lessons which were fun.
Having my journal at the end of the week as a reference. I wish I could do it every day.

Ali Woodgate,

"I most enjoyed just listening to Helen talk about art. It makes me excited to think that this is my new adventure.

I can no longer do my old hobbies, so I am relieved and happy to have found something I can enjoy, after a couple of years of not being able to do anything creative at all."

Kasturi Tussler,

"This is the first time I have taken part in an online course and it worked really well. Because I was at home on my own, I didn’t feel distracted by others in the group and wasn’t tempted to compare work. A large group in a room face to face may not have been so productive for me, as I feel I made really good use of the time.
Helen’s way of teaching was superb, with a great mix of demonstration and theory, along with encouragement. I feel that I was challenged to get out of my comfort zone and explore new ways of working, which was exactly what I wanted."
