Diane McLaughlin reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"I thoroughly enjoyed the day and even though I am a complete beginner I came home with a print I was pleased with. Lee was a very good teacher, and with only 4 in the class was able to help everyone individually. The studio is well equipped and the atmosphere is relaxed and enabling. "

Alison Morgan reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"What a wonderful day. Lee was a brilliant teacher and I came away with a lot of useful knowledge , not only in lino printing but also composition and colour. Not having done any formal art training I am lacking in technical skills so found this most helpful. I think I could repeat the course at some time and learn more , a day didn’t seem long enough to take it all in "

Heather reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"An amazing course to do. Had it gifted to me as a birthday present and it was one of the best ! Lee is patient and easy to follow even when I got totally confused at one point. A very talented artist and as such I am going to do another course with him “Colour, composition & the Wow factor” Loved the day, went so quickly, amazing setting and easy to find. Highly recommend Lee and the Lino print course."

Deborah Griffin reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"Super course! As a complete beginner , Lee made me feel very comfortable and was incredibly patient with me as I created my Lino print. There was a solution to everything and I was so pleased with my finished item. Great company, inspiring setting and fabulous tuition. Thank you Lee. A wonderful day. "

Lee Wright Artist responded:

"Thanks a lot for coming Deborah and well done with your print."

Frances Page reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"Such a fun and informative day thank you Lee! I was a complete novice but left with a great understanding of the technique and felt very proud of my prints. The course is taught in a charming old school house nestled in the mountains - I even loved the drive there! "

Lee Wright Artist responded:

"Great to meet you Fran and well done with the lovely print."

Charles reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"Lee's Lino print course was perfect. Lee himself is laid back but clearly exceptional in his craft, the venue is sublime - most artist's dream studio setting. Lee was supportive and encouraging and modified the learning for each student according to their needs and desired outcomes. It was productive, enlightening and I was consumed for the duration. Will definitely go back for this or any of the other courses that the school offers."

Lee Wright Artist responded:

"Thanks a lot Charles. Great to spend the day with you and well done in producing such an exceptional print."

Judith Chubb-Whittle reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"A day really well spent learning Lino printing. Thank you Lee. As other people will read this, Lee is a fantastic artist, superb work. I got a real appreciation of how much work goes into his lino prints, not to mention the oil portraits and landscapes. I hope I get the opportunity to do more courses, really enjoyed the day."

Lee Wright Artist responded:

"Thanks a lot Judith. I really enjoyed spending the day with you and glad that you got so much from it. Hope to see you again soon. Lee"

"Enjoyable and informative course with a knowledgeable and friendly tutor. Thoroughly recommended."

Miranda Walker reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"I’ve no hesitation in recommending a class with Lee. From start to finish it was as enjoyable as it was informative and inspiring. Lee imparts his considerable knowledge and shares his skills in a very supportive way that is tailored for each student. It was a lovely relaxed atmosphere; you are made to feel very welcome and valued. You will leave feeling confident and motivated - I feel like one day with Lee has brought about a quantum leap in my approach to print-making! The beautiful venue is also great and there is plenty of easy parking on site. Thanks so much, Lee!"

Brydon Williams reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"Cannot recommend this course enough. Lee gently led us into producing some wonderfully coloured and beautiful prints. It’s a day that would suit varying abilities . As a complete’ art’ beginner Lee had a way of giving me confidence to make decisions without taking over. I felt so at ease and too absorbed in the process to feel Inhibited. It was amazing and exciting watching our prints emerge throughout the day each layer informing the next. Will go back for more soon. "

Rachel F reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"Lee was a good and patient teacher. The process of design, cutting, ink mixing and printing were clearly explained and I was delighted with my first ever linocut. The studios were great too and got set up for the course and lunch and seeing other artists at work in the lovely Victorian school rooms. Would love to go on another of Lee’s courses and would highly recommend this one. "

Lee Wright Artist responded:

"I am glad that you really enjoyed the day Rachel and what a lovely print you created. Well done! Hope to see you again soon... Lee"

Ellen Russell reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"We had a brilliant day with Lee in July. We booked as a group of 5 friends and he was very generous about finding a date we could all manage. His teaching was really clear and encouraging and he managed the different levels of experience and skill without difficulty. Lee maintained a good pace so that we all had a chance to complete/nearly our prints. The studio was lovely and we each had plenty of room to work in. I would recommend Lee's course to anyone. I hope to repeat it. Long live Lee!!"

Alison Crane reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"My friends and I really enjoyed the day. We achieved far more than we expected as complete beginners due to Lee's calm and helpful tuition, and the lovely relaxed atmosphere in the studio. We would definitely recommend to others and would do the workshop again. "

Diana Woods-Humphery reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"I very much enjoyed the lino printing course at Cwmdu Studios. Lee is very helpful and encouraging, and I was very impressed with how everything was organised to maximise success for the rookie lino printer! Not to mention the Studios which is such an inspiring environment. A very good day, and I only wish I lived closer."

Kathy Medlicott reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"I had a fantastic day at Lee's lino print workshop. It was exactly what I wanted. His tuition was spot on. He really knows his stuff. He was informative with clear instructions and guidance in a friendly, kind and encouraging way. The class was small which gave time for each student to have more than enough personal tuition. At the same time he allowed each of us to put into practice our own freedom of creative expression and interpretation of what we wanted to achieve. I learned so much. Such a nice guy. I am now getting some stuff to practice on my own. The old school is a great location too and you feel inspired just by being there and soaking in the creative atmosphere of what other students are doing. Book a course. You will NOT be disappointed"

Kate Williams reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"Such a great course! Was nervous before I started as this was outside of my comfort zone & my very limited artistic abilities. However, Lee soon put me at ease with his patient & extremely knowledgeable approach. Lee was very supportive throughout, sharing his techniques & expertise to give us all a thorough understanding of the process. And the venue was stunning. Beautiful building filled with some of the most stunning paintings and linoprints I've ever seen - such amazing talent. Would highly recommend Lee's course. Even if you're a newbie like me, I'd encourage you to give it a go."

Jonathan Roger reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"The hushed atmosphere of Lee's professional lino printing studio. Ambitious I thought for one day, how to have four colours in your reduction lino print. Fully absorbed, relaxed and made doable by Lee."

Sue Cartlidge reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"Hadn’t done anything like this since school days very many years ago. But with Lee’s help I learned much more than then.....how to hold the cutters, what kinds of pressure to use, how to use the roller and mix the colours....all quite new to me. Was astonished at the resulting image that I produced, all in a very supportive and encouraging atmosphere. Thanks so much for a really great day that got me out of myself. Am sure I’ll be back for more before too long."

Magpie reviewed: Lino printing landscapes

"I had a great day in the studio with Lee and the others attending the Lino Printing course. Lee is very easy going and encourages all participants, before you know it you are working and learning without any lecture style tuition. We all got the benefit of Lee's obvious techincal knowledge and enthusiasm for print making and art in general. All the attendees were guided and encouraged but ultimately able to make their own choices and everyone ended up with their own bespoke print at the end of the day. The venue was great - I really liked the 'studio' vibe - seeing other works in progress. I would like to book further courses."

Lee Wright Artist responded:

"It was great to spend the day with you Gary and the rest of the 'gang'. Look forward to seeing you again later in the year...Lee"
