Susan Harrison-Tustain School of Painting!
What does this mean for you?

The Susan Harrison-Tustain School of Painting is designed for all levels of skill from beginners to advanced and professional artists.
As artists we often reach a plateau in our painting journey - we want to move forward but are not sure how.
The Susan Harrison-Tustain School of Painting is specifically designed to help you understand and reach your full potential.
"After twenty years of teaching painting workshops in New Zealand, US and Europe, and an internationally best selling North American published book, as well as best selling watercolor DVDs - the demand for my painting tuition is far outweighing the time I have. So I have created The Susan Harrison-Tustain School of Painting where on an individual basis I can lift your work to the next level and beyond. My school of painting is about understanding your goals and then you and I working together to achieve them. Depending on which mode of tuition you chose, I can tailor an Art Critique, a personlized One on One Workshop in my studio or a 6 month Painting Course specifically to meet your needs.
A personal critique of your artwork, online workshop and private One on One painting workshops are the ideal way to learn how to paint in Watercolor and Oil – and extend your painting skills, understanding and knowledge.
