We are delighted to introduce several wonderful new tutors joining the NatureArt Lab teaching team next year. Each brings a wealth of expertise, fresh ideas, and a shared passion for creativity and the natural world.
They’ve put together an exciting program of courses and workshops for 2025—offering new skills, new perspectives, and plenty of inspiration for artists of all levels. We can’t wait for you to meet them and explore what’s ahead!
