🕊️ Soaring Seagull, Soaring Spirit! 🎨🌊
Today I had the joy of teaching a lovely lady how to paint a special piece for her home — a single, majestic seagull flying high across a vivid blue Cornish sky. Wings outstretched, dancing on the thermals, it glides freely above the cliffs and sea — a symbol of freedom, movement, and perspective. She’s already completed my 9-hour art course, so today was all about building on that solid foundation — adding new painting techniques, blending transitions in the sky, and capturing that beautiful moment of flight. I love lessons like this… creative, personal, and full of laughter and learning. 💙✨ If you’ve got a picture in mind for your home (or a memory you’d love to turn into art), come and join me — online, in person, or even on the beach! It’s amazing what we can achieve together in just a few hours. 📩 DM to book a session or ask any questions 🎨 Beginners and beyond welcome #ArtLessonsCornwall #CornwallArtist #LearnToPaint #CreativeCornwall #ArtWithMeaning

🎉 9 YEARS of ART at the BEACH! 🎉
This weekend marks nine whole years since I opened the doors to Art at the Beach — and what a journey it’s been! Over the years, so many of you have popped in, taken lessons, bought paintings, and shared stories. Some of you arrived as strangers and left as lifelong friends. I’ve watched people who never thought they could draw go on to create incredible artworks. I’ve taught on clifftops, in kitchens, on beaches, and over Zoom — and every single moment has added to this incredible adventure. Thank you for being part of it. For believing in the power of creativity. For supporting local art. And for reminding me — over and over again — why I do what I do. Here’s to everything we’ve shared so far… and everything still to come 💫 With love, Jeanni x Smiles all round this morning! 😊✏️
These two lovely ladies joined me for a sketching session where we explored far more than just faces… In under three hours, they learned how the psychology of seeing affects both the artist and the viewer — and how to use that knowledge to turn flat lines into powerful, three-dimensional human form. It’s not about copying — it’s about understanding. And when the knowledge clicks, the results are amazing. Just look at those smiles and the brilliant work they’ve created! So proud of what they achieved in such a short time 💫 If you’re curious what you could achieve, come and join me — either in person or online. #ArtAtTheBeach #SketchingWorkshop #LearnToSeeDifferently #PortraitSketching #CornwallCreativity #ArtLessonsUK #DrawingFaces #BeginnerArtClass #ArtTransformation #SmilesThroughSketching D 🎨 Too wet for the beach? Perfect day to learn to paint. This breathtaking tiger, painted by one of my students, looks just like a photograph — bold, powerful, and full of life, leaping out from a dramatic black background. She now joins me online once a week, building on what she learned in my 9-hour foundation course that unlocks everything you need to see, sketch, and paint with real confidence.

“How on earth did Jeanni find in me sufficient ability (talent) to complete a recognisable portrait of my wife! A great teacher.” – D Today, this wonderful gentleman completed a portrait of his wife using a full range of professional techniques — from washes and glazing to stippling and drybrush — all in just three and a half hours. He also brought along two other paintings he created from a previous lesson we’d done together. It’s been an incredible journey to witness his artistic confidence and expression unfold. This isn’t just painting — it’s memory-making, story-sharing, and self-discovery through creativity. 🖌️ My lessons are for all ages and all abilities — and they’re about much more than art. They’re about capturing something meaningful, together. 📍In-person, Zoom, or private sessions across Cornwall 📩 Message me to book your session. #PortraitPainting #CornwallArtist #PaintingMemories #ArtLessonsForAdults #UnlockYourCreativity #CreativeCornwall #SupportLocalArtists #ArtWithMeaning #ThingsToDoInCornwall #PaintingWithPurpose #EmotionalArt #ArtThatConnects Two lovely ladies, proud as anything – and rightly so! 🎨
