Featured Course
London Arts TripEvery year in October we take a party to ...
The trip is ideal for anyone thinking about living or studying in London, especially those studying the arts.
During the 5-day trip, we meet with lecturers and other staff at several world-class universities in London and discover the range of courses on offer, and get first-hand information and tips about applying to them.
We also schedule time to visit some of London's fine museums and art galleries such as Tate Modern, the National Gallery and the V & A.
In the evenings, we take in theatre at some of London's top fringe (small-scale) theatres, and we often spend a day getting photography tips from one of our top photography coaches. There's even time for a spot of pre-Christmas shopping as well!
You can see some of our photos in a slideshow from this year's trip in the gallery section.
Book now for 2012
We're now taking bookings for next year's trip which takes place between 22nd and 26th October 2012.

Greg McCorquodale Cruise
Born in the United Kingdom in 1969, Greg spent nineteen years from the age of six growing up in SouthAfrica. It was here early in his childhood that Greg found a passion for drawing and painting. This led him to the Johannesburg High School for the Arts and WITS School of Art and Design where he completed his further education and continued to develop his skills as an artist, inspired by wildlife and the excitement of the African bush.
Following a career in advertising and design as a Creative Director he changed direction on his return to the UK pursuing a business career and a MBA which also provided relocation to Manhattan, New York for a few years. This was followed by a return to London and then recently a family relocation to Geneva, Switzerland which has finally enabled him to recognise his goal of returning to full time practice as an artist.
Draughtmanship has always been a core focus in Greg’s work being influenced by many of the great masters but particularly Degas, Turner and Monet. Greg’s work is predominantly figurative but impressionism plays a central role in most of what he does with a fascination for light, shape and form. Classically trained in figure drawing and with a passion for form it is of little surprise that the human figure, portraiture and wildlife have been common subject matter for him in his own work. With a vast array of cultural influences from three different continents this global citizenship has provided a wealth of inspiration that Greg feels is only just beginning to emerge through his work.
