The Artist
China Jordan
Originally from Grimsby, China studied Fine Art Painting at Wimbledon is now a commissioned Artist and tutor. Throughout her training, she has studied with various grandmasters along the way and covered mediums such as pencil, oil paint, and pastel. She specialises in classical realism and portraiture and now teaches in various locations. Having managed several art galleries in Mayfair, she decided to set up her own business, ArtistAnd, and focus on using Art for venues and businesses outside of the Gallery environment. With the strong connection between mental wellbeing and art, there is no better time to make this art form as accessible as possible.
