Paint your resolutions: Art Metro
For many, new year’s resolutions aspire towards new hobbies and trying new things. We have all heard the phrase: ‘New year, new me’.
Between goals in work or sport, some strive to instead rediscover a long-lost creative vein. “It is great to be creative, to develop our skills,” says Art Metro’s Simon Walmisley. Offering adult art classes for individuals of all skill levels, this premier art school is a path of opportunity. Split into nine-week terms, students learn skills ranging from water colours and pastels, to abstract painting and freehand sketching.
Whether you’re at a beginner, intermediate or advanced level, Art Metro introduces you to the next steps. With a focus on individual tuition, students leave each class feeling they have progressed. “Art is a long-term investment,” Simon says. “Our hope is because of the progress, people will continue for a whole year and develop a long-term inspiration.”
Let 2025 be the year you try something new. Learn to be creative, challenge yourself, and make friends simultaneously. “It’s about taking the plunge. The hardest thing about learning to paint or draw is walking through the doors on the first day.”
