About
Welcome…
I’m Zara and I have two main passions in my life. My art and my animals.
Creating art has always been an escape for me and more like therapy. Living with the flare ups associated with inflammatory arthritis, I have always found time spent at the easel is more than just simply creating art. Not only is it incredibly fulfilling but it’s a way to channel every day anxieties and stresses we encounter into something positive and productive.
My passion for helping other artists led me to create this platform where I could continue to teach over 1,200 students from across the world, how to paint and draw realistically in pastels, acrylics and graphite. I started my art career as a pet portrait artist and always felt so honoured and excited to be able to call that my job. Being asked to draw someone’s much loved pet is so special and a feeling that I’d love to help other artists experience should this be the path they wish to take. This is why I focus my teaching on pet portrait tutorials as much as wildlife.
Any spare time, away from the easel, I am with my pets. My dog, 3 horses, 9 sheep and a few reptiles, they all keep me busy and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
What do I want to achieve?
I am passionate about helping artists achieve their dreams. Whether that’s becoming a pet
portrait or wildlife artist or enjoying art as a hobby. This is why I offer a mixture of wildlife and domestic pet subjects in my tutorials. The feeling of receiving the first commission is something that many people feel isn’t within their reach but with patience, practice and determination, anything is possible.
‘My aim is to support and provide confidence to guide you through every step of your art journey.’
My Goal
My tutorial membership is where you’ll find everything required to take your art to the next level. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to refine your skills, I’ll guide you through the entire process.
One aspect that means a lot to me is to provide an approachable and supportive environment that replicates one to one tuition within the comfort of your own home.
I’m here to answer your questions and show that with the right mind set and knowledge, anything is possible.

No matter what stage you are at in your art journey, I am devoted to helping you improve your art skills.
All tutorials from the last 2+ years have been recorded with a voice over whilst I work. No parts are sped up or cut out. This makes all of the lessons, even larger more complex projects, step by step.
I’m really looking forward to working together to help you achieve your art ambitions.
