About Lewis Hier

LEWIS HIER THOMAS BSc (Hons) GDip PgDip

OVERVIEW
Here to support you wherever you are in your journey, I used to work a typical job in London before becoming an artist, so I know first-hand how intimidating it can be to take the leap into something new!

Now with substantial experience and academic qualifications under my belt, I'm equally well placed to guide established artists, as well as being able to support those completely new to creative expression to dive into their artistic journey.

MY EXPERIENCE
Living in southwest London, I am a fine art graduate of the world-leading Royal College of Art. I deliver one-to-one tuition, lead independent life drawing group sessions, and I have facilitated printmaking workshops for the Royal College of Art.

I have exhibited across London in commercial galleries (Ad Lib Gallery, Luminoir Art Gallery, etc), institutional spaces (RCA Hangar Gallery, cultural institutes, etc), and community activations (Holland Park, Richmond Park area, etc)

MY MEDIA
- Charcoal and graphite
- Soft pastel
- Printmaking
- Metal engraving
- Painting

MY LOCATION
I live in the Windsor area of Berkshire. I hold private tuition in my artist studio in Bracknell, which is my preference. I may also be able to travel to you throughout: Berkshire; Surrey; southwest, west and central London. I can also teach online.

MY OWN ARTWORKS
Personally, my own work has always represented a longing for something I deeply crave but cannot have – to feel safe, to feel understood, to feel desired, to feel entirely loved. Obsessed with the male form as my subject, I have come to use drawing and printmaking as a way to bare my psychological nakedness by deconstructing and reconstructing nude others.

MY BACKGROUND
With a non-traditional background in healthcare and strategy consulting before moving into the arts, I know how intimidating it can be to take the leap into something new! As a tutor, that's where I come in, supporting you to realise your ambitions and enjoy your creative journey.

About the lesson

Every lesson is bespoke and tailored to you!

My approach is to understand you, why you've been drawn towards art, and what you're hoping to achieve with tuition - this allows me to tailor our work together and ensure you get what you are hoping for from my tuition. Whether you are completely new to trying your hand at art, or a regular practitioner looking to take your work to the next level, I'll support you on your journey.

I work with children, teenagers and adults. Depending on where you are based, I can teach you at my artist studio, travel to your home, or tutor over Zoom.

MAKING
In my creative practice, I specialise in contemporary life drawing of the male nude, using dry media (charcoal, pastel, metalpoint), printmaking (metal etching, lino, wood block, monotype) and painting (oil). Therefore, if the human figure or these techniques are of specific interest to you, I'll be especially well placed to help.

RESEARCH
My own artwork is often quite research-based in its development, drawing on inspiration from contemporary and archival photography and literature. I enjoy the academic side of fine art, so would also be happy to provide you with tuition to better enable your research, methodological and conceptual approaches in your creative practice.

ART SCHOOL PREP
If you are preparing to apply to art school, I can also offer help with reviewing and providing feedback on artist CVs, portfolios and statements.

Janina

Lewis is a kind, polite, and creative person whose passion for particularly figurative work and attention to detail regarding material, form, and colour is not only deeply inspiring but also highly practical. Lewis can look at work critically and provide clear guidance, drawing on a wide knowledge of the practical aspects of the craft- knowing exactly what tools to use and how to use them. Furthermore, his strong academic background is a significant asset when searching for references and artists relevant to one’s own practice.
