WELCOME TO POCKET PICASSOS
Pocket Picassos is for kids who love art. Great term time Saturday workshops held by practising artist Lise MacDermott, lisemacdermott.com
in a well stocked home studio in Trowbridge. We have 3 big fluffy Ragdolls. They are friendly , playful, curious cats who love to be cuddled and played with. So I should say this workshop is for kids who love art.. and cats.
Extremely competitive rates. Browse this website to see just what excellent projects the children have done and their achievement as artists. I always look forward to future art projects.
Our Saturday classes run 10am till 12 noon and are for age 8-12
The next topic is Animal Heads which runs 28th Feb- 21st March 2026. I'm taking January 2026 off to finally get the leaky studio window repaired and re organise the studio.
Animal Heads is a 4 week course. It's heavy on the materials, preparation and the cleaning, so I'm still charging £30. Also it's hard to fit that one in with term and half term dates. Normally courses are 5 weeks.
A 4 or 5 week course, 2 hour weekly is £30
...........................................................................
Other classes include Drawing, Graffiti and Manga, Rooms in Boxes, Pop art, Mask making, Abstraction, Junk modelling,
Marbling and Printmaking including Linocuts and Polyprints, Dioramas, Clay and Sculpture, Gilding, Hybrid Animal Sculptures, Collage.
At a maximum of 8 per class, children's individual thoughts and ideas can be explored and made. All interpretations are encouraged!
Private tuition for any age available various evenings and weekend times £20 per hour.
Classes are run by Art teacher and artist Lise MacDermott (BA PGCE MA), in her studio in Trowbridge, Wiltshire.

My name is Lise Macdermott and Pocket Picassos takes place in my home studio in Upper Studley, Trowbridge, Wiltshire. I am an artist and teacher and hold a current enhanced DBS check. Our home is safe and child friendly, and we have 3 beautiful cats. Our garden, where some of the drawing classes may take place, is safe and fenced in, making it a lovely enclosed space.
