Dan Bethell - Artist / Professional Tutor
​
​Graduated from Falmouth University in 2017 with a 1:1 First Class honours degree in Fine Art.
​
Foundation Diploma in Art from UCA (University for the Creative Arts) in 2014 with a Distinction.
2 Years experience as gallery manager in Chester - organising exhibitions, photography and listing new artist collections, art workshops, framing and fine art reproduction.

​
Since 2018, I have been passionate about helping others access the enjoyment and therapy of art. I have been teaching privately for almost seven years with experience teaching all age groups in a range of mediums, including graphite pencils, pastels, oil painting, acrylic painting, watercolours, printmaking and even furniture making. My own professional experience as an artist helps my students understand the possibilities of their paintings. Teaching in a step-by-step formula helps inspire my students to push the boundaries of their creative abilities with my knowledge and tuition.
​
I have been building my artist community and network now since 2020 - teaching via zoom during COVID and teaching in person as soon as I could. Now almost 5 years later, I teach up to 32 adults a week a range of classes and courses. We have also recently expanded to offer Children's art classes during term-time and half-term. We feel this is really important when we see so many creative children with schools not able to provide equipment or correct tuition.
​
I currently split my time between teaching oil painting classes in Cheshire and drawing/oil painting commissions. If you are interested in an original graphite pencil drawing or oil painting - please get in touch.

Original Graphite Pencil Drawings
An original graphite pencil drawing is the perfect gift for your friends, family and loved ones. Treasure a moment in your lives, whether thats a new addition to the family or a moment to remember - these drawings will last a lifetime and will be passed down through generations.
An Original Oil Painting
An original oil painting is like no other piece of artwork you will own. A traditional medium marked in history for its vibrance and characteristics of showing the artist's hand. Painted on oil-primed Belle Arti linen canvas and using the best high-pigmented artist oil paint. Every oil painting is varnished 6-10 weeks after completion using Gamblin - Gamvar - Satin Picture Varnish - trusted by the National Gallery in London.
