Reviews
After attending the one day course, 'Sketch-booking for New Artists, Journals, Keep Sake Books and Coursework' I have no hesitation in recommending Rachel and any of the courses she offers.
Prior to my visit I let her know exactly what I was trying to achieve in my own art book; areas I was finding difficult and techniques I'd like to experiment with. On my arrival everything had been well prepared in advance and things we would need carefully laid out.
I found Rachel extremely knowledgable and a great teacher. Nothing was too much trouble, anything I asked for appeared and I felt totally indulged and spoilt.
The day was fun, I learned loads and thoroughly enjoyed my day in the studio.
Best wishes

Response from Gifted Crafts Company:
Wow. Such kind words. Thank you Sandra. So lovely to work with you. Well done on developing great techniques and styles. RachHi Rachel,
We have received three 'parcels' and a dropbox link to 30 videos.
We haven't got the chance to 'éxamine' the materials in detail so far. However, at a glance, we should have enough information to make a book. :)
Thank you very much for reaching out to us - greatly appreciate.
Kind regards,
Paul
