masterpeace london

At MasterPeace, we practice mindfulness through painting. It’s not about how ‘good’ you are. It’s about enjoying a moment of creative calm in an always-on world. So build a little creativity into your routine and see what happens when you paint yourself an even better picture - Zena El Farra, founder.  MasterPeace launched in September 2019 as London’s first dedicated mindful painting experience, with an initial focus on in-studio classes, hosted in their Belgravia studio.  Founded by Zena El Farra and run by a team of 20 artists, MasterPeace was inspired by new research revealing that creativity tangibly boosts the mood, and can be an effective tool in managing anxiety and even depression.  In the wake of Covid-19, the business had to quickly adapt to the changing circumstances. It was from this that the At Home Art Kits were born, enabling the young business to survive and thrive. They grew to reach customers in 17 different countries around the world with their journey was celebrated on the pages of the Daily Mail, Evening Standard, the Mirror, Forbes, Tatler and more. Come and discover the relaxing world of art with us today! 

tori ratcliffe

Tori Ratcliffe is an Edinburgh-based artist, born and bred in Hampshire. She was first introduced to watercolours at the age of 21 after asking her aunt for a lesson, but she found she was too impatient to grasp the traditional methods and instead developed her own unique style; applying the paint first in loose expressive strokes and then drawing the details afterwards in ink.

elizabeth rhodes studio

I am a southern Kentucky artist whose passion is to cultivate creativity in everyone. I believe that anyone can be an artist and I love watching people dig deep to tap into their artistic talents. My current medium of choice is glass, resin, and wood. I love the juxtaposition of sparkly and crunchy glass, shiny resin, and rough reclaimed wood. The textures and depth of colors provide a unique and visually exciting aesthetic. As a Studio Arts major at Western Kentucky University, I spent many hours falling in love with fiber arts, weaving, ceramics, printmaking, sculpture, drawing, acrylic & oil painting. My post-grad years were filled with painting murals and creating custom artwork for schools, businesses & private residences. I continue to teach private and community classes in the Bowling Green, Kentucky area. Hi! I’m Elizabeth, a southern Kentucky artist and I love to help people use their creativity to make beautiful art. I believe that everyone is an artist and I love helping people dig deep to tap into their creative side. I enjoy teaching online glass collage courses, watercolor courses, facilitating and teaching in a monthly membership groups, and creating commission work for clients to enjoy in their homes and businesses.

sable studio gallery

I am a fully qualified art tutor and began working in Adult Education over 20 years ago for Leicestershire County Council. When a unit became available to rent by the canal, I decided this was just too much of a great opportunity to miss and so began running my own classes from my gallery space. The business has gone from strength to strength and I have lots of regular students who attend my weekly classes as well as attendees to the weekend workshops which I offer, usually twice a month. In 2019 I was chosen to appear on BBC One on the new art TV series 'Home is where the art is' with presenter Nick Knowles which was a fabulous experience. This then led to me pushing my art further afield and striking up a working relationship with the SAA. I have my own watercolour book coming out in 2023, signature watercolour paints are due out 2022 along with a brush set. Loving art of a different kind, I am a black belt and currently a world champion in Tae Kwon-Do at hand power - have been British Champion breaking boards and held many more titles from this martial art and Judo
