"I live in the same village as Ernie, it is brilliant to have such a great tutor right on my door step. I went to his “Open Art Studio” in the summer. He was so friendly and inspiring that I decided to embark on a six week, one half day a week course on a one to one basis. Fantastic! As I had not used oils before and I particularly wanted to do portraiture, Ernie really tailored our classes to exactly what I needed. He is so knowledgeable but completely put me at ease and I can now say why was I so nervous about using oils, they’re brilliant. He has also given me a lot more confidence in my portrait drawings skills.
I shall definitely be doing more classes after Christmas. In the meantime I’m going to enjoy practicing my new found medium. Thank you Ernie. "
