FAQ
What is the best time duration for a lesson?
In my experience a 90-minute session works best. However, there is a choice of 45 min, 60 min, 90 min and 120 min sessions.
Where do lessons take place? What does the space look like?
Lessons take place in central Cambridge and once we get in touch, I will share the exact location. You will be practising in a spacious well-lit room equippted with an easel, drawing board, and other art supplies.
I love making art, but I’m not very confident, can I still attend a lesson?
Yes, absolutely. Through clear guidance and feedback, you will develop both technical skills and confidence.
What materials to bring?
It’ll depend on the skill that we will choose to practise. After the trial lesson, I will let you know what materials to bring to the next session or if I will supply materials.
Students’ feedback
“I love to learn water colour painting with Arina. Even for a short period of time, she has taught me basic painting techniques that I can use on my own. She taught me the proper way of how the water colours must be applied to the paper. As a beginner, I find it easy to do it on my own now that I am back in Indonesia.”

She took 5 x 60-minute sessions focusing on watercolour technique
