"I had been attending an Art class elsewhere but became dis-satisfied with the teaching and the student/teacher inter-action. I made the decision to change to Colourwheel in Maidenhead and have been delighted with it. They care for each individual and make extremely pertinent remarks to each student. There is also a great atmosphere in the class group encouraged and maintained by the staff. The class is one of the highlights of my week!"

"A great course that helps to develop your artistic skills at all levels. Friendly, welcoming and extremely well organised so all you need to do is turn up. Each week there is a new challenge and technique to have a go at with demonstrations and advice from a first class teacher. I have really enjoyed the course and would recommend it to anyone who has ever wanted to enjoy creating a work of art of their very own!"

"I absolutely love my Thursday afternoons attending the Colourwheel art classes. I had never done any art before attending the classes - They are brilliant, a friendly relaxed environment in which to try out different techniques and mediums. Highly recommended."

"The art classes are excellent! As a complete beginner, having not produced any art work since 'O' Level, I am amazed by what I have been able to achieve. This is down to the excellent teaching and format of the classes. Working with a different medium each week (most of which I hadn't even heard of before) helps in making each session both interesting and enjoyable. Both Rene and Erica are both so friendly and positive about everyone's work making Thursday afternoons relaxing and fun."

"This is a fantastic course at superb locations. I started in September 2017 as a "beginner" and I'm still here., I have learned such a lot from both Erica and Inge with Rene being super organised. I've made new friends. Art classes are "me" time that I won't sacrifice for anything. It has given me the confidence to exhibit (and sell) some of my art. However, I come to class to keep learning the techniques and using new media. It's such a joy. A wonderful way to pass a morning a week. I would thoroughly recommend it. It really is worth giving it a try. You'll be hooked."

"Have you ever been told that you can't draw? - then this class is for you! In a super supportive and friendly environment, teachers Erica and Inga will guide you (at your own pace) through the different disciplines of drawing and painting. Each week builds on existing skills whilst introducing new ones, together with exciting new mediums. It's completely hassle free as everything is provided by Rene, including comprehensive class notes. Twelve terms later, I'm still learning new techniques and discovering new mediums. I remain constantly surprised at how a class of 20 or so people with differing abilities can produce such a diverse range of unique art week after week. I genuinely look at the world in a different way - and best of all, I'm no longer that person who "can't do art"."

"This is the best art course I have ever attended. Everyone is encouraged to learn new skills...and we all do! The atmosphere created by Erica and Rene is supportive and fun. I have attended 3 courses a year since the beginning of 2017 and will be coming back for more."

"I came to the course with minimal school level art experience only, and have developed confidence I never had, and skills I only had aspired to. Rene and Inge are amazing inspirational teachers and leaders. I am thrilled that I have had the opportunity to be part of such an inspirational course and plan to engage again on the next available one. There is an fabulous collegial atmosphere in the group which adds to the overall excellent experience. Thank you."

"What an excellent class!! Top notch teaching, very organised with everything supplied. Just show up & everything is at your station. I have attended for 3 years now & wish I found this class years ago..... No where else compares to this class. Everyone is friendly & we have lots of laughs & banter. I highly recommend this class, give Rene a call & she will set up a free taster session. Come & see for yourself. Why not? Brenda S"

"ColourWheel art classes are great fun, I started in January 2019 with the intention of just going to the one. I am now doing this term and will be back again. Rene (host) and Erica (teacher) are both fantastic, doing everything they can to make you welcome and at ease. A variety of mediums are taught and the atmosphere is very relaxed. Fellow students make for humorous and entertaining banter. ColourWheel is my 3 hour sanctuary- no phones etc. I highly recommend it. Sandra H"

"Love these Colourwheel art classes. You learn such a lot, become completely immersed in this new hobby and meet some lovely people all at the same time. I look forward to Thursday afternoons all week. Whether you're artistic anyway or you just want to take up a new hobby with a professional but very friendly company, I can’t recommend Colourwheel highly enough. Rene always takes the time to make each lesson 'special' so for example we have fortune cookies when painting Chinese lanterns and a Poldark theme when studying the perspective of a Cornish tin mine!! Erica is our resident artist and is always clear, encouraging and very approachable. Windsor Racecourse is a lovely venue too!!"

"These are the classes where you learn to fly! The tutors are of the best, Rene is an imaginative and hard working hostess and we meet in perfect surroundings. I have been to other classes but here the other students are my friends who encourage me to improve without being critical of my efforts. I am always relieved when Rene agrees to accept me for a further term."

"I was one of ColourWheel's first students and have attended the course five times in Maidenhead. The course is brilliantly organised and run by Rene and very ably taught by Erica and Inge. All materials are provided which makes attendance so much simpler than taking one's own. The venues are very comfortable and well suited to the course: refreshments are always available and there is plentiful parking. Above all though, the course has a comfortable, calm, friendly, supportive atmosphere and feels like a group of friends. So, it is as much a social event as a course, which suits me perfectly in retirement. The pace of the course has been adjusted over the years to ensure that the three hours are not over crowded with exercises - there is just the right amount to do. No particular expectations are set by the teachers so it is not stressful! I painted with acrylics for some years but the course has developed and broadened my experience through many other media. I thoroughly recommend the ColourWheel experience!"

"Love this course and would recommended it to anyone. I first went for a taster session last year and thought it was way beyond my ability. 3 terms later and I am addicted. Rene is always ready with a smile and a great welcome every week and her attention to detail is amazing. Erica is such a lovely lady showing us her beautiful skills in creating great artwork. She is always ready with advice and compliments which mean a lot . Best feel good 3 hours of the week Xx"

"I would like to express my praise for ColourWheel Art Classes for adults! I enjoyed them so much that I have completed 6 terms ... Lessons are both stimulating and challenging, designed to develop our skills in a supportive and fun environment. Rene, our host, provides a warm welcome and ensures that the lessons are totally organised. It is fantastic to know that we just need to bring ourselves along - all materials and equipment are provided. Inge, our teacher, demonstrates the techniques clearly and provides individual attention and tips in a sensitive fashion when required but will also let us find our own style. Furthermore, lesons take place in attractive venues with a lovely group of fellow enthusiasts. Highly recommended!"

"I'm really enjoying the Colour Wheel classes and have improved my skills significantly during the 14 weeks. Before joining the class, if I picked up my brushed, I would work with a subject or medium that I felt comfortable with, however the varied syllabus enables you to try a range of creative techniques to build your skills and confidence. Renee does a fantastic job of organising everything, so all materials and session content are provided and Erica is a brilliant tutor who offers clear direction and also one to one encouragement and guidance. It doesn't matter whether you're a beginner or more accomplished, everyone is made to feel welcome and can learn at their pace. I love finding some some 'me time' in a busy working week with a great group, and I'm signing up for next term I enjoyed it so much."

Margaret Gonning reviewed: ColourWheel art classes for adults - Maidenhead - Thursday

"This was my first term as I retired at the beginning of the year. I was a bit nervous about my first class with colour Wheel but I needn't have been. I have loved it from the start and learnt such a lot in the time I have been there. We have covered a very varied syllabus which gives you an opportunity to try things you would not have otherwise have thought of doing. Everyone is so kind and very helpful and everything is provided for you along with the special touches like the ice lollys on a day that was exceptionally hot and we were drawing a beech schene, to mention a few. I am just about to register for my second course and can't wait for them to start again."

Carole Dixon reviewed: ColourWheel art classes for adults - Maidenhead - Thursday

"A complete beginner in September, I am now completing my 3rd term and looking forward to next September. Syllabus is varied, as are media used: charcoal, pastels, watercolours and more. Classes are very well organised by class leader, Rene, with all materials provided/set up on arrival. Amazing teacher, Erica, gives clear demonstrations, help and lots of encouragement. Lessons are challenging and well structured with 2-3 activities in each. I now observe more carefully and actually see perspective, colour, tone etc.. An excellent opportunity to see the work of other, more experienced, students in an atmosphere that is sociable, supportive and productive. Thoroughly recommend!"

"Well I was very nervous when I first started this course as a beginner , some 3 years ago !!!. i am still going 8 terms later. The teachers are first rate .I have learnt o much. Rene runs the class and keeps it going by clockwork. I have met many friend through this course and we meet up socially. It took oe lesson before we all loved learning and laughing at ourselves too.
