About Caroline Tatham Art

A Mother/Daughter Duo

Caroline Tatham

Caroline is passionate about observing nature to create fanciful, naïve, and imaginative landscapes and still life paintings. Her work is also used for illustration and has been featured in Country Life magazine.

She studied at The Royal College of Art and has taught at a range of colleges and art schools, including Central Saint Martins School of Art in London.

Caroline is a qualified lecturer, with 30+ years of teaching experience under her belt. She’s loved running the Cotswold Gardening School since 2010. Caroline specialises in teaching creative design to a professional standard for those with no previous experience, helping them achieve results they never imagined possible.

She exhibited her over 30 artworks at WWT Slimbridge for seven weeks last Spring. 35% of all proceeds went to the WWT charity. Plus, she’s proud to have her artwork permanently featured in the WWT Slimbridge shepherds huts.

Emma Tatham

Teaching assistant. Caroline’s daughter and business partner.

Emma is the marketing manager, brand manager, photographer and social media manager for Caroline Tatham Art, when she is not creating her own art and craft work such as her beautiful ceramics. She is very involved in our artistic direction, as well as being a natural teacher. Emma really enjoys assisting Caroline's tutoring during the in-person courses, with top tips and practical support as well as on-going feedback.

Our Beautiful Setting

Caroline's garden is at the core of everything that she creates. As a practicing garden designer and educator, she has developed her own garden over the past 15 years. It makes a wonderful setting for our in-person art courses and provides an ever-changing source of natural inspiration for creativity. She shares weekly drawings of flora and fauna from her garden with our online Facebook community 'Growing Creativity'. These drawings are intended to be used as templates for art and craft projects coming straight from Caroline's garden to your studio.
