Paintbox School of Art

Paintbox is a very special place with people fully committed to helping you to grow as an artist and achieve your potential. They have created a safe environment to experiment, particularly during these very challenging times and their support has proved to be a lifeline.

Courses at Paintbox are always exciting and innovative, making full use of the space inside the beautiful Cockenzie house and adjacent coastline and working harbour. Jemma and the team are always supportive and creative in delivering both theory and technique. From beginners to established artists wishing to move forward with their practice, there will be something at Paintbox to build skill and confidence. Highly recommended - this will be my 5th year as a student in this great community of artists.

Outstanding independent art school in East Lothian led by the dynamic Paintbox team! Having attended many year long courses, weekend workshops and summer schools I can highly recommend Paintbox. Students are supported and encouraged to find their own artistic voice in a positive and nurturing environment.
