​​​Testimonials 


Here is what some previous clients had to say:
 

  • 'The best art workshop I've been to.'

  • 'Yesterday's workshop was brilliant! It felt very relaxed but we learned so much in a short time! I especially liked the way we got started with paint straight away. The activities were perfectly pitched and demonstrated. I liked the fact that we could follow you exactly but put our own ideas in. It showed up in how different everyone's finished paintings were. Having the materials and notes was brilliant (no frantic scribblings needed by me that I can't make sense of when I get home!) You were so positive and encouraging and your love of the process shone throughout.'

  • 'Brilliant day – you are as gifted a teacher as an artist!' ​​

  • 'Everything about the workshop was well managed - we were stimulated, assisted appropriately - encouraged - and - given the time to explore.'
