Hi there! I'm Heidi, an oil painting artist who loves sharing my passion for art with others. I've been actively exhibiting my work at galleries and art fairs for the past year, and I also teach oil painting classes in my home studio.

In the past, I taught oil painting in Hong Kong for over two years, and I've had the pleasure of working with students of all levels. I'm passionate about helping people learn to paint, and I believe that everyone can create beautiful art.

If you're interested in learning more about my work or taking one of my classes, please don't hesitate to contact me. I'd love to welcome you into my artistic world!

Thank you Cindy! It was a pleasure to have you in class and I'm so happy to hear that you found the oil painting experience therapeutic and enjoyable. I appreciate your kind words about my knowledge and passion for painting. I hope you continue to explore this artistic medium and I would love to have you back in another class. Thank you for the recommendation! :D

Good value. Appropriate little studio setting for the day. Little pieces of knowledge to make the day an easy learning curb

The teacher was very lovely and friendly. She provided all materials. The venue was good. Parking was easy.
However the lesson was not what I expected. I thought the single class was a beginner class with a lot of introductory information and practice with the paints and brushes and the 4 classes were after you had completed the first one. Instead I did the same as the people doing the 4 classes which was copying a small painting. It was fine just not what I was expecting or wanting.

Teacher's response

Hi Anna, Thank you for giving me a review! I am sorry that it is not exactly what you expected. In the class yesterday we talked about the basic info such as values, composition etc that are the introductory materials. I had also mentioned in the listing that it is for 1-3 people in one class. I did believe we had a good time yesterday as we all painted and chatted happily for 3 hours. I will edit my listings here to make it clearer for everyone. Hope it helps! And have a good day! :D

Had a great lesson with Heidi today. She is experienced and knowledgeable and guided me step by step whilst I worked on my painting. I gained so much confidence in the three hours I spent with her. In fact hardly had any sense of time - I forgot to stop even for a drink. It was so absorbing and empowering for me.

Teacher's response

Thank you Dilhara and look forward to seeing you again! ️

Amazing experience! Great quality materials and relaxed workspace.

Heidi is extremely knowledgeable about oil paints and she does not impose her style.

Lesson was well structured and she was always attentive and enthusiastic.

Being an absolute beginner. So happy of my work in progress.
