Tonkinson Art Masters is designed with the vision of providing  artists with a good and solid foundation in the basic fundamentals of art making.

My purpose is to work together with Artist to develop a tailored set of skills in drawing and /or oil painting with fail proof guidelines, and a proper and professional foundation in traditional as well as contemporary art making
