Private Face to Face Tuition with Martin Kinnear​

An exclusive, fully tailored day in my studio designed for and with you to turbocharge your practice. 

​

This is the most focused way to move your painting forward. You set the brief—by genre or subject—and I shape the day around technical, creative, or commercial mentoring to suit you. Whether you want to master glazing, strengthen composition, develop a distinctive style, or build a gallery-ready portfolio, we’ll work exactly where it matters most for your practice.

​

Who I am: I’m an award-winning oil painter, Royal College of Art (RCA) graduate, Paris Salon Laureate and RCA visiting lecturer, with work in the UK Government Art Collection, a public gallery solo show record, dozens of gallery shows and opens, and two decades of mentoring painters at every level.

I think Martin is really making us all think more about what painting is all about. What a joy to benefit from his research. I wish I had found him years ago.
