Art courses on the web

The London Art College specialises in providing tuition by Distance Learning art courses (Home-study art courses) and has an international reputation for excellence.

It was established in 1931 in Fleet Street, London by a group of artists and art editors and has for many years specialised in the production of some of the best written art courses available anywhere in the world. Each course is specially designed for home study, allowing you to work at your own pace in the comfort and convenience of your own home.

The college believes that painting and drawing skills can be acquired by anyone - with proper tuition and practice. We offer a range of courses for home-study: something for everyone from the complete beginner to the experienced artist.
The college offers a range of more than twenty courses, all very carefully written and complete in themselves. They are divided into easy-to-understand and follow study units. Supported by full illustrations, the study units progress gently and steadily giving students a thorough grounding in the techniques being demonstrated.

When you purchase one of our written courses you will have access to the help and support provided by our course artists, talented painters and illustrators, who are themselves active and successful artists usually with formal teaching qualifications and who have been chosen because of the sympathetic and supportive way they relate to fellow artists.

Each course has it's own course artist who will review submissions and give help, advice and encouragement as one artist to another. Course Artists are not teaching so much using their experience as successful artists to help others. For seventy five years our courses have helped tens of thousands of aspiring artists and illustrators to learn new skills and in many cases to develop their careers. We offer well proven, well written art courses in a variety of subjects, that really work.

Welcome to our website.

We hope you will find our website interesting and informative. The College prides itself on offering a warm welcome to new students and our courses are very carefully written to help aspiring artists develop their skills and build confidence. Art should be one of the great joys of life, but most people need a little help to get the best out of art.

If you want to be a better illustrator or painter, we can help. If you are a beginner and you want a gentle introduction to bring out your talent, we can help. If you don't want to be an artist yourself, but you do want to understand art better, we can help.

The college has always offered high quality courses at very competitive prices. We keep our costs under tight control and believe we offer great value for money.
