"A thoroughly enjoyable day. Helen was an excellent teacher and the venue was very comfortable. We had a lovely group that day which made for good conversation and added to the enjoyment"
"Thoroughly enjoyed the day from start to finish. The venue was great and the whole atmosphere was warm and friendly. Jack our tutor was outstanding, offering lots of support and guidance and you immediately felt at ease. The day went so quickly and I returned home totally inspired, relaxed with some lovely pieces of abstract art. "

"I really enjoyed the pyrography course with Helen and Richard. Both tutors were very approachable and helpful. There was ample supplies and ideas available for everyone. Help was available for anyone who wanted it. The venue was great. Thank you Helen and Richard. "
"I was on the April 25 course with Jack. Jack is very friendly, approachable and patient.
He explained about the origins of abstract art and then gave us some warm up exercises. We then experimented with composition using black acrylic before moving onto colours. We had a lot of opportunities to try different techniques and Jack gave us demonstrations on using brushes and other tools. We moved into our canvases and Jack helped with colour mixing and provided an objective view on our pieces. Would definitely recommend this workshop and would consider doing again. "
