Practicing artist and art educator Isabella Allis runs regular adult art classes at Chrome Street Studios. She tailors her art instruction around each individual student, considering their chosen pathway in art and helping to develop their unique artistic voice. Isabella strongly believes in the benefit of having a strong technical foundation in art, developing skills through practice and observation, and then being able to apply these skills in any chosen way.

Although Isabella specialises in oil painting and charcoal/ graphite drawing, she draws on her knowledge of a broad array of mediums to guide students working in the medium of their choice. The weekly classes bring together a small art community where art students can socialise with like-minded people, share ideas and resources and paint or draw in a social setting, whilst receiving instruction and mentoring from Isabella.
