Acrylic Painting Class: Roses and Peonies

Treat yourself to an artist-led, flower-filled, painting session.



2.5 hours Class size 1 to 30 guests       £45

Join this beginner friendly, painting class in South West London, where I'll share some of the secrets to painting contemporary florals. We'll be using acrylics and metallic inks, on a 30x40cm canvas board.This is an immersive - but fun - experience designed to give you some 'time-out' from the day-to-day and give you a taster of being an artist.
Depending on the day there'll be a group of 4-8 students and depending on the mix of personalities the class can be very 'Zen', or full of fun and laughter. Generally there's a happy balance between the two - with periods of quiet focus interspersed with amusement and great chat!
Don't worry if you're a beginner, you'll be guided through some fun, warm-up exercises to get you going and I’ll be on hand throughout to help create your masterpiece (!)
At the end of it all, you'll have picked up practical art skills, built your confidence and be taking home your very own work of art.
Classes are held at my studio on the 1st floor in Wimbledon Art Studios. It's a light, bright space that showcases my work and is perfect for events like these.
I'm thrilled to be able to share my world through this class and look forward to creating something beautiful with you..!

  • 5/5 from June Battye, attended Jul 2024: My second ClassBento experience with a fun and helpful teacher Kat who organised the session around a specific theme. She gave out helpful information sheets on how to start drawing certain flowers then how to layer and shade. She was generous with her paints, stencils and other materials to try out e.g. chalk which added to the acrylic medium. Whilst establishing an informal atmosphere we all seemed to work constantly with purpose so one felt a sense of achievement at the end. I would book with Kat again.
  • 5/5 from Lara, attended Jun 2024: Kat's class was awesome, she was great at guiding the class to express ourselves in such a way that even though we all got the same prompt, we all produced completely different pieces, and thanks to her expertise, they all looked amazing. She was so good at giving us 1 on 1 attention, even in a group setting, and suggesting things for each individual to do to improve our work. 100%recommend.
  • 5/5 from Tanya Du Preez, attended Jun 2024: My Neon Roses session with Kat and the group was soo much fun! I thought the materials and atmosphere was excellent and Kat has so many other options to choose from too (spray painting / crayons to name a few) and it was fantastic to hear her ideas! I am no artist, but it was amazing how stress-free I felt, a little escape. I will book another session with friends soon too expand this new past-time!
  • 5/5 from Karen, attended Jun 2024: Kat made us feel very relaxed and gave us great ideas to influence our work, a great class for mindfulness and fun! I had no expectations as I’m not an artist, but I was so thrilled with my result and that was down to Kats ease and guidance, the materials provided were great and I would recommend this class to anyone looking to express they’re artistic/creativity in a non judgmental space. I’ll be back!

I’m Kat, a Norwegian artist living in the vibrant heart of South West London. My journey is fueled by a passion for exploring breathtaking places and connecting with incredible people. From my early days in art college, I’ve immersed myself in various creative pursuits, from interior design to hairdressing, but my true love has always been painting.
My artistic style is a dazzling blend of neon flowers with metallic effects, capturing the electric beauty of nature. I have an enduring fascination with trees from every corner of the globe, and I infuse my work with a touch of edgy, glamorous graffiti. Each piece I create is a celebration of color, life, and the boundless inspiration I draw from the world around me.
Art, for me, is an exhilarating journey of discovery and expression. I’m thrilled to invite you to join me on this creative adventure. Together, we can craft stunning, unique pieces that resonate with joy and beauty.
Let’s make some magic and create beautiful art together!
