Rosie reviewed: Paper Marbling Class Full Day at Portsmouth Museum

"After a warm welcome from James Mouland, my nine year old grandson and I settled down to our marbling session feeling relaxed and keen. He got us participating in a short time without the kind of ponderous lecture that gets one impatient to start. Thereafter he led us through the basic steps with great patience and a professional lightness of touch which engendered confidence. Our two-hour session (sharing a tray) flew by and we both loved it and the results we got. James is personable, engaging and considerate and one senses his vast experience in this exquisite art of Turkish marbling. Really a 5 star experience in every respect and great value for money. Many thanks."

James Mouland Ebru Studio responded:

"Thanks Rosie, it was lovely meeting you and your grandson, you both made really good progress in a short time. Hope to see you again soon, James."
