Traditional Art & Digital Illustration Lessons for All Ages!

Hi, I’m Danielle! I’m a professional artist and experienced mentor based in Sheffield, and I am here to help you or your child discover the absolute joy of making art. Whether you want to master traditional brushes, dive into digital character design, or just try something completely new, my lessons are tailored entirely to your unique pace and goals. What I Teach: Traditional Mediums: Step-by-step guidance in Acrylic painting, Oil Painting, Oil Pastels, Charcoals and fundamental Sketching/Shading techniques. Digital Art: Learn how to navigate Procreate and alternative digital platforms, perfect for beginners wanting to learn digital illustration, anime styles, and character design. What My Lessons Are Like: I don’t believe in rigid, stressful classes. My lessons are designed to feel like a breath of fresh air, warm, relaxed, and highly encouraging. Making mistakes is a celebrated part of the creative process here! Because I have a professional background in frontline support and leadership, I bring a huge amount of patience, active listening, and empathy to every session. I have advanced safeguarding training, meaning I specialise in creating a safe, confidence-building environment for children, teens, and adults alike. Whether we are connecting online or in person, my goal is to break down complex techniques into simple, fun steps so you leave every lesson feeling proud of what you've created. Let’s pick up a brush and start creating together!
