Welcome to the website of Helen Layfield, Artist and Art Teacher.
Art should be fun, relaxing, stimulating, challenging and empowering. We all have the capability to be creative; let me show you how, whether you are a complete beginner, or a more experienced artist looking for a new outlook.
I run a series of art classes which are designed to help you improve and expand your technical
knowledge as well as inspire your creativity. The classes run throughout the year, covering drawing and painting. You can join at any time and can move between the different venues if you need to change days.
NEW for 2010 - 2011 will be regular LIFE DRAWING classes, a six week MOSAIC course and added to the Artists retreats are regular CLAM CREATIVITY days where art and meditation are fused.
A WATERCOLOUR course is now available and can be purchased for €40, this can be done in class, on your own or as a correspondence course - full details in classes section. At the Artist Retreats, there is space for 6 people of any artistic persuasion, and of any level, to get together to be creative. We will share accommodation and meals and there will be work space available.
Whether it's soaking up the atmosphere and doing lots of photography and sketching, or completing a painting on site… it's up to you. I won’t be setting projects, doing demonstrations, or giving you specific projects.
This is YOUR time to be creative – I am here to give guidance and tuition when you need it.
Please feel free to browse the gallery/shop, I do not undertake commissions but new two dimensional work will be added regularly.
NEW - Students original work will be added to the galleries in the following months and in early 2011 limited edition prints, greetings cards and postcards of my work and students work will be available.
