Testimonials...
‘I have been trying to paint with watercolours for a while, often in either a very detailed controlled way, or in a loose messy way that always seems to lack depth and interest. The way you paint showed how you can showcase the looseness and spontaneity, through strong shapes and colours. ‘
‘I think one of the best things about doing this course, rather than trying to follow tutorials online, is that it gave me a better insight into how others paint, and re-assured me that things I was struggling with were normal’
