Art Teacher
The Highams Park studio is run by artist and textile designer, Kylie. She specialises in natural dyes and makes colour from plants for paper and textiles. Kylie is passionate about inspiring others to enjoy the process of making and supporting them in their artistic development.
Catherine is an artist who graduated with a BA in Fine Art. Her practice revolves around portraiture, figuration and abstraction, and she explores these subjects through oil, watercolour, drawing and collage. Alongside teaching at art-K and her studio practice, Catherine also co-organises a weekly drawing group at London galleries and occasionally facilitates youth support work in woodwork, metalwork, and creative activism. Catherine is passionate about supporting diverse artistic communities for the invaluable joy, support and knowledge these communities provide.
Redefining What it Means to Learn Through Art
At art-K, we are passionate about nurturing creativity and building confidence through artistic expression. Our engaging weekly classes, workshops, events, and parties provide a supportive environment where students can grow in their artistic skills while embracing their unique abilities. We celebrate each student’s journey, fostering a community that values collaboration, self-discovery, and mutual support.
Our personalised teaching approach adapts to each student’s age, ability, and interests, ensuring that every individual feels seen and valued. We believe that art education goes beyond technique; it’s about instilling core values, enhancing self-esteem, and encouraging a sense of belonging. By celebrating our students’ successes together and welcoming their outside creations, we cultivate a culture of continuous learning and joy. At art-K, we’re redefining what it means to learn through art, and we’re dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of our students. Join us in discovering the transformative power of creativity!
