About Kulvinder Kaur
Born and raised in England, Kulvinder Kaur Dhew earned her MA in Painting at the prestigious Royal College of Art in London. She has been an Artist in Residence at ARCO in Lisbon, Portugal, Vermont Studio Center, USA, and Delfina Studios Trust in London, UK. As Head of Painting at The School of Art in New Zealand she helped to establish the MFA Program and the School’s first foreign exchange program.
Dhew has taught at several universities and colleges in different parts of the world, including The Universiti Malaysia Sarawak on the Island of Borneo. Her work is held in many collections including MTV Europe, Sir Kazuo Ishiguro, and the UK Department of Education and Science. While Kulvinder is a full-time professional artist, she is also a curator/gallery director, and educator. Dhew’s students have been successfully admitted to many top-tier Universities including The Art Institute of Chicago, RISD, Royal College of Art, SVA New York, Yale University, Cal Arts, Chelsea School of Art, and MIT.
I enjoy working with students who are passionate about learning and who come from many different places and life experiences. This exchange inspires wonderful results and continues to expand my understanding of the world.
Following graduate school, I was offered the position of Head of Painting at The School of Art in Dunedin, New Zealand. The School is the oldest university level art school in the country offering BFA and MFA degrees.
I have a BFA in Painting from Bath Spa University (Bath, England) and MA in Painting from the Royal College of Art (London, England). During both programs I focused primarily on Drawing, Painting, and Printmaking.

Starting with a brief introduction, I have a conversation with each student about their interests, passions, and goals. We discuss their ideal learning environment; what kind of “setting” is most comfortable for them. I ascertain what they feel are their strengths and weaknesses because I’ve learned that how students judge themselves can have deep impact on the trajectory of success they often follow.
During my teaching career I have taught at universities in three different countries; USA, New Zealand, and Malaysia. I have taught students from a wide variety of countries and who come from many different cultures. My students have come from nearly every walk of life and who’s ages span from kindergarten to retired individuals. I’ve taught students with every skill level up to and including professional workshops.
In my realm, ideas are the fundamental building blocks of art that is most meaningful. The student should try to ascertain a teacher’s potential to engage in an exploration of ideas that are most meaningful for the student. Also, when surveying a teacher’s portfolio, does it demonstrate a variety of skills. Finally, does the teacher have a passion for teaching, and are they empathetic to people and the learning process.
My husband’s mother turned 90 years old recently. He and I were asked to host her online party; an extravaganza of musical performances, PowerPoint presentations, poetry readings, story-telling, and my husband and my performance of an excerpt from the play, “Greater Tuna.” I had never acted before so it represented all the stresses one feels when undertaking a new experience that has to do with “performing.” As artists we are all risk takers so I believe that this enables me to empathize with and understand other people’s feelings when entering unfamiliar waters.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Students would be encouraged to think about what ideas are currently MOST important to them. I very much enjoy the process of teaching skills in thinking AND rendering. They go hand in hand. As a teacher, I would welcome their thinking about their strengths and areas in which they lack confidence.

Perfect! Kulvinder has been very helpful and personable. Her insights into art and the artistic process have been valuable in my own art, even when working with a subject media she was not familiar with. Our conversations have been engaging and I appreciate how approachable she is.
Perfect! Kulvinder is very knowledgeable and friendly. I'm a complete neophyte when it comes to painting. She's patient and provides excellent instruction.
