Christine Seager reviewed: Julia Triston Workshop - Analysing Colour

"Julia’s course was good - she is a good tutor and very encouraging to all students regardless of their level of knowledge. However, the course was well overpriced. The facilities were poor. Similar courses cost less in fully equipped studios."

Pippa Andrews reviewed: Amanda Hislop Workshop - Developing Sketchbooks as a Rich Resource

"This course was fantastic. I learned so much about how to loosen up and quickly fill up page after page of a sketchbook using collage, inks and dry media. Amanda is an excellent tutor."

Bernice reviewed: Amanda Hislop Workshop - Developing Sketchbooks as a Rich Resource

"Amanda introduced us to her style of working. There was a good mix of discussion, teaching points and personal encouragement. Although we all had the same insturctions there was a wide variety of work produced. This is the second workshop I have taken with AManda and I thoroughly recommend attending any that you can. The venue is easily accessible with adequate parking. Becca organises great tutors and I am already booked onto another two this year."

Chris Bussell reviewed: Angie Hughes Workshop - make a mixed media/textiles bookwrap

"Angie was an excellent tutor, very generous with sharing her ideas and materials. Would do another course with her any time. Good to find a new venue within reasonable distance although classroom was a little cramped and the course a bit more expensive than usual. An inspiring day."

"I always enjoy Textile Exploration workshops, Becca picks such excellent tutors and the venue is easy to find and has a good cafe for lunch. The Angie Hughes Daisy wrap workshop was no exception, Angie was brilliant. I learnt a lot, got inspiration for other projects I am contemplating and met some lovely like minded people. A great day all round. Really looking forward to the next Textile Exploration workshop!"
