Michael Oxley reviewed: Watercolour Art & Spa 2 day full board learn to paint @ The Flackley Ash Hotel Rye Sussex

"A very enjoyable two day course. Learnt many new water colour painting techniques. Produced several nice paintings, two I particularly like very much. Painted in a whole range of styles which was a great experience. I loved how Vicki was able to correct / recover mistakes I made so that progress could be maintained. This was a very useful lesson to learn and apply. A lovely setting and a very nice group of people to spend two days together learning to paint in water colours."

"Vicki is an inspirational teacher who strives to ensure each and everyone on her course is successful. With all materials provided, we spent the day exploring different techniques of applying colour to create our very own watercolour masterpieces to take home. Mine are not perfect by any stretch of the imagination but I shall certainly be taking up a new hobby and can’t wait for my art supplies order to arrive so I can carry on my artistic journey! "
