About Gideon
On 6th May 2023, I was commissioned to paint the procession of the Coronation of HM King Charles III. During the months that followed, I have created a portfolio of art that will become part of The Royal Collection. Soon to be unveiled!
During 2023, I have also been fortunate to have been re-commissioned by contemporary gallery Hauser & Wirth, to create another series of portraits of local people living in Braemar, Aberdeenshire, for The Fife Arms Hotel.
Whilst in Scotland, I received a further commission from the gallery to create portraits of local fishermen for a new restaurant in Ballater, 'The Fish Shop'. Later in the year and in 2024, I will be in Morzine, France, working on another exciting portrait commission.
CAREER BACKGROUND 2020-22 was a busy period in spite of the global pandemic. I continued to paint and draw, both in the UK and overseas, including a special time in Norway. I also discovered I had an interest in garden design and am inspired by the amazing Dutch designer, Piet Oudolf.
In 2019 I embarked on a project to draw D-Day veterans to coincide with the 75th Anniversary of D-Day. In June I visited Normandy to meet veterans from many countries including the UK, America and Canada.
The Royal British Legion kindly hosted an exhibition of my portraits and I was thrilled these were viewed by HRH the Prince of Wales and HRH the Duchess of Cornwall.
In 2018 I was fortunate to be commissioned by Hauser & Wirth to create a series of portraits of local people living in Braemar, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. These portraits can be seen under the tab Characters of Braemar and are on display at the Fife Arms Hotel in Braemar.
In 2017, I completed a challenging postgraduate 'Drawing Year' in London, based at The Royal Drawing School. I feel very honoured to have attended such a prestigious school and remain in contact with a number of peers and also the talented and very experienced staff.
In 2016 I focused on the experiences of refugees and created a project called 'Love the Stranger as Yourself.' In 2015 I completed 'Sketch A Day Africa' – which involved drawing 365 African newsmakers from January 1st to December 31st 2015.
This was incredibly challenging and also a wonderful way to learn more about Africa and to feature some extraordinary people. Previously, Africa was barely on my radar and in November 2015 I had a memorable experience visiting Senegal and Gambia.

English
Alumni student of The Royal Drawing School offering Art Tuition for all levels. I am confident that I can help those who are taking GCSE Art, A Level Art, Foundation art as well as teaching those at any age who want to improve their knowledge of art/ability to draw and paint on the side. I offer passionate and informative teaching through a range of techniques, from drawing/painting in plein air, visiting galleries/museums to working indoors progressing on specific art projects and pieces. Drawing and painting is all about developing one's eye but also putting in the hours to improve. I am positive that with my unique knowledge and experience, there will be a fast improvement to the students' ability and interest in the subject.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by the students of Gideon.
Perfect! Great experience
I booked a session with Gideon for my cousin who is in year 10. Gideon is a very well presented young man, very knowledgeable in the discipline of art. He is very prepared, we talked about lesson plans prior to the session, he also arrived 15 mins early to the first session. I am a university lecturer, so I have very high standards, but Gideon meets all my expectation and will strongly recommend him to others.

I would really recommend Allan to anyone looking to improve their skills in this industry, and know i will be going back to him if I ever need another lesson!
Gideon is a brilliant teacher - totally adaptive to my individual requests, went out of his way to help and at the same time remained structured and ensured I was really clear on what was required and how - exactly what was needed! He endured and was calm, clear and coherent in the face of my creative chaos! I found him approachable and friendly, and down to earth despite his evident expertise. I have really made use of what he has taught me, and it has transformed the way I work. He has stayed in touch too, as will I - back for more lessons!
Thank you for all that you’ve done for me this year. I hope we stay in touch for a long time to come. Your patience is second to none! I had so much trouble with some of the difficult parts of class this year and struggle with my work too, but you stuck by me and had faith that I’ll get there in the end. Big Thank you!
A** He has great attention to detail and accommodates students' individual needs. Definitely recommend!
Great approach from Gideon , very patient, very encouraging and helps you paint and draw with many different techniques and materials
Perfect! It was an excellent lesson. I’ll definitely come back for the next lesson. Top job and very happy!
Gideon has been such a lifesaver for my kids as they navigate their GCSE art, thanks to him they have gone from being predicted Cs to A*s! Couldn’t recommend him any more - and what a pleasure he is too!
Having known Gideon for some time now I have always been amazed by his way of drawing and talking about art. I have joined him many times to galleries and been out drawing with him too. I am not much of an artist but have a strong interest in the subject.
