Workshops, Classes & Private Lessons
“Anyone can learn to draw and paint!”
Join Me On Patreon!
Patreon is my new online classroom where you can learn everything I taught my university students for a fraction of the cost. Over time this will include instruction in drawing, watercolours and oil painting. Although I also have limited spaces available for one-to-one art coaching (see below), Patreon is the best way for me to reach more people and to make learning art more affordable for everyone. I’m excited to share this with you!
Private Lessons & Online Art Coaching
One-to-One Lessons in Drawing & Painting
Do you want to learn to draw or paint but don’t know where to begin?
Do you want to become better at a specific medium, but don’t know how?
Do you want to improve your technique, but feel overwhelmed with all of the information out there?
Do you want to take your art to the next level?
Do you want to apply to art school and need help developing your portfolio?
Do you need help with your Art GCSE or A-level?
Private Lessons are available if you would like to take your art to the next level.
I have taught thousands of students of all ages for over twenty years and I have yet to encounter a student who can’t learn to create wonderful art. With instruction and practice, everybody can learn to draw and paint!
Choose what you want to learn and I will design an individualised plan to assist you in your quest. Whether your passion is portraiture, urban sketching, plein air painting, or traditional oil painting, I will guide you along the path to realising your dreams.
I offer private and semi-private lessons and workshops in drawing and painting. I work primarily with charcoals, water mixable oil paints, watercolours, gouache and ink. Please contact me if you would like me to teach you private lessons, or to offer a workshop at your school or arts centre.
All levels are welcome, from beginners to advanced. Dates & times are flexible and to be determined on an individual basis. In general, most students choose to study for a two hour block once per week.
Lessons are taught at my studio in Devon. For those who don’t live nearby, I offer online coaching via Zoom.
Student Testimonials
“Professor Stroz is not only what I call an artistic “miracle-worker,” she is also an incredibly gifted artist herself, as well as a supportive instructor and friend.” -Emily
“The transformation of a student’s work after the completion of one of Professor Stroz’s classes is truly remarkable to observe. Upon leaving, students are rewarded by a great awareness of their own accomplishment, and the knowledge and skill to continue to grow.” -Hannah
“As a student, I am especially impressed by Leslie’s ability to convey information to her students in a way that is both thorough and easy to understand.” -Jessica
