About Narelle
I will help you develop your skills as an artist. My approach is to focus on your own interests and to help you see the possibilities with exercises in observation. The tutorials will offer an opportunity for a sustained period of enquiry, revision and experimentation and seeks to develop both perceptual skills and a personal language in response to the task at hand.
I am a British trained artist with a background in theatre, storytelling, drawing and painting from observation and imagination. I have years of experience teaching adults, children and teens, both in-person and virtually.
I have a BFA in Theatre Design and and MFA in Production Design for Film form the Royal College of Art in London. My drawing practice has taken me around the world. I have participated in international drawing and painting workshops in Europe, most recently at the Royal Drawing School in London.
I have experience in teaching students from beginner to advanced.

I works with individuals and I help develop their own work and style. I give exercises and feedback and encourage growth with constructive discussion. My style is focused while also relaxed, so that we can enjoy the work as we progress.
I teach both drawing and painting. I work in oil and acrylic on canvas as well as in pencil, charcoal and pastels on paper when we are drawing. I mostly work from observation, but also can work from the imagination and from memory. Online tutorials in my sessions includes: composition, tone, value and color palette as well as looking at other artists...I am also open to other skill training that the student may want to explore. We will be working from still life and life as we work on various exercises. Please feel free to ask any questions as I would be happy to answer - Narelle

Look for a teacher who is going to give you individual attention and will help you develop your skills and imagination in a way that you feel comfortable.
During the pandemic I have been teaching students online and one of my favorite classes has been to teach painting to new Americans who have settled recently. The group is all women and they are benefiting from developing their painting skills.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Discuss learning objectives and goals, that can be skill level as well as bigger ideas. I would also discuss other artists that inspire and the direction in which the student would like to go as they consider their own path. You might also discuss the ideal number of classes, frequency and if you have time for on your own practice between meetings.

The class focused on drawing hands and feet from observation and then bringing them together to compose a large portrait. I enjoyed the fact that, you could shape your hands and feet in different ways based on your own desire. This made each piece unique and have its own sense of character. Using charcoal as a median was also an exciting new utensil i learned how to use. The art class provided a new angle on how to go about an artwork and i would highly recommend it to those who wish to develop there art skills.
The drawing and painting from observation lesson with Narelle was so much fun. I got to learn many new skills and work with a new medium. We worked with charcoal and drew our hands and feet in different positions. We then put it all together to create an imaginative creature. I learned how to blend to create shadows and highlights to achieve more realistic effects. The lesson was great for people of all abilities and fun to do with family or friends. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to develop their art skills.
Super teacher and I've enjoyed her work.
Very impressed with Narelle's work, she is a wonderful teacher.
Narelle is one of my favorite teachers of all time ! I had drawing classes with her before and she was always inspiring and gave me many different "perspectives" that push me out of my comfort zone. Not only my skills has improved but also the way of observing / perceiving has expanded. I really enjoyed the process !
The lesson provided me opportunities to explore shapes and forms of objects and human bodies, including volume and color study. The class has a lot of freedom to study what we want to focus on, and I learned plenty from observing as an artist and playing with different medium. The instructor was patient and gave some extremely helpful guidance. Strongly recommended!!
