Meet your teacher
Hello, I'm
Diane
I teach artists, creatives and aspiring painters (just like you!) how to paint chinoiserie and turn their passion into something truly special.
I built my career as a chinoiserie artist from the ground up, learning directly from the masters in China and refining my own modern approach. I'll be your guide in helping you achieve those BIG artistic dreams, whether that means painting for joy, growing your skills, or even building a creative business.
Chinoiserie is as magical as it looks, and I'm here to help you make it part of your life.
