AHA courses are much better than A level History of Art as a preparation for university work. Exposure to real paintings, sculpture and buildings develops visual alertness. Seeing art in the cities where it was made reveals how it was shaped by its cultural context. Students from AHA have been made aware of many of the problems and excitements of academic Art History before they begin their BA.

I am a painter, graphic designer, writer and musician based in Cambridge, UK. It is difficult to say what inspires me to paint; sometimes I'm inspired by the clouds in the sky and sometimes it's the scent of the day, but often it is simply an emotion, which creates the scene! I was born in Warrington, Cheshire and spent my early years living in Leytonstone.

I am a Henna Tattoo Artist based in London. I also cover the Cambridge area. I love Henna and have been practising for many years. Since graduating from University in 2011 I have been working as a Freelance Henna Artist. Although my style is heavily influenced by traditional Henna patterns I love experimenting with new ideas to work out what looks good and create a contemporary style of Henna body art. I have been working on hundreds of designs so there is something for everyone!
Cambridge Artworks is a community of artists, working in studios in a former kitchen cabinet maker's workshop near the centre of Cambridge. It is run as an artist co-operative where all artists share in the decision-making process and all help with the running of the studios. As well as studio spaces, the building also houses ArtSpace, which can be used for exhibitions, workshops and taught courses and is available for hire.
Artists Home Mikey Welsh Khara Oxier Connie Sales William Thompson Talvi Winter Michael Hoffee Stephen Judges C Weaver Glenn Brady Marianne Roetzel George Lloyd Heslet jr. Being an artist is a scary thing to declare; it's much easier being a plumber or engineer or doctor. Not in doing.but in telling. Because when you say "I'm a plumber", everyone knows what you do. Same with doctor, engineer or garbage man. Most know why you do it, probably how much you make and where they stand with you.
