About M Stewart Paintings
Experience
I have been an active professional in the arts since 2017, specializing in both acrylic and oil painting. My work has earned recognition internationally, having been featured in exhibitions in London and Paris, as well as local galleries throughout Kent, where I am based.
Teaching & Community Engagement
For the past several years, I've cultivated a strong background in working with diverse and specialized populations through roles focused on support and mentorship. This experience has equipped me with valuable skills in communication, patience, and adapting instructional content for individuals with a range of needs, including those with mental health challenges or specialized learning requirements.
Concurrently, I have translated my passion into instruction: I lead in-person art classes for community groups and maintain a dynamic online teaching presence. Primarily, I focus on acrylic painting tutorials for beginners on my YouTube channel, M Stewart Paintings, where I share various techniques, including a Landscape Painting Tutorial and guides on How to Paint a Sunset.
This combination of creative practice and community engagement allows me to effectively teach, inspire, and connect with students at all skill levels.
Style
My art style is heavily influenced by nature and the beauty of the world around us. As a dedicated Landscape Artist, I strive to capture the essence of my subjects and bring them to life on canvas. While I paint all genres of landscape, I specialize as an expert in painting Sunsets and Ocean Seascapes, mastering the dramatic light and movement of those subjects. For those interested in exploring this art form, I offer acrylic painting tutorials, including a Landscape Painting Tutorial that focuses on techniques like How to Paint a Sunset.
Teaching Philosophy
My teaching style is centered on creating a calm, relaxing environment ideal for acrylic painting for beginners. The primary goal is to foster inner confidence and a genuine sense of self-accomplishment in every student. I provide supportive instruction that empowers beginners to take the brush with a peaceful, self-assured approach, encouraging them to create their own M Stewart Paintings.
Services
I provide a comprehensive range of artistic and instructional services tailored to private and corporate clients:
