Paint a Colourful Sunset Seascape with Acrylics

Hello, I'm Shazia, a UK-based artist, painter, photographer, designer, and author with a passion for creativity, wellbeing, and lifelong learning.Art has been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. What began as a personal exploration of colour, emotion, and mindfulness gradually grew into a creative career that allows me to share the joy of art with others.My work is inspired by the belief that art can be more than something beautiful to look at—it can be a source of calm, self-expression, connection, and healing. Through my workshops, I aim to create welcoming spaces where people can relax, explore their creativity, and enjoy the process of making art without pressure or perfection.Alongside my artistic practice, I have worked across a range of creative fields, including fine art, photography, graphic design, illustration, and UI/UX design. I also hold a postgraduate qualification in Psychiatry from Cardiff University, which has deepened my interest in the relationship between creativity, wellbeing, and personal growth.Over the years, I have exhibited artwork, published books, developed digital creative projects, and built my own art brand, ShaziArt. These experiences allow me to bring both professional knowledge and a supportive teaching approach to every class.Whether you're a complete beginner, looking for a relaxing, creative activity, or simply curious about painting, my classes are designed to be friendly, encouraging, and enjoyable. My goal is to help you discover confidence in your creativity and leave each session with something you're proud to have created.
