Welcome to the Martin Kinnear Studio, a place for serious painting tuition shaped by disciplined looking, sustained curiosity, and a supportive community.

​

Programmes offer clear pathways for painters at every stage, from The Oils Programme, providing a calm, structured foundation, to Advanced Oils, supporting artists developing work for exhibition and gallery contexts with practical rigour and momentum.

​

Led by Royal College of Art graduate Martin Kinnear — a Paris Salon laureate whose work is held in public collections including the UK Government Art Collection — the studio is informed by active professional practice and ongoing research into the material language of painting.

 

Recent academic recognition with world class teaching universities, reflects this continuing engagement while reinforcing a simple aim: rigorous, generous teaching grounded in the living tradition of paint.
