"This was a very rewarding day with lots of clear ideas covering many aspects of watercolour painting. Several people had never painted before and were able to reach a remarkable level of achievement by the end of the day. Sarah's frequent and very helpful demonstrations as the day progressed were extremely enjoyable. The workshop was beautifully organised with all the right materials to hand. Apart form the tuition, Sarah's sense of fun and infectious humour made the whole day a great experience."

"The day started in Sampsons Restaurant over morning coffee. It gave us all a chance to relax, which was very reassuring. Sarah put everyone at ease with her lovely, bubbly personality. Sarah's instruction was very clear, and backed up with well prepared notes for everyone. In the afternoon, the full extent of Sarah's experience and expertise became apparent. She seemed to find almost unlimited time for each of us, coming round regularly to offer help and support. There was no pressure, yet I was constantly aware that I was learning. It was very therapeutic. I've already booked another course."

"A veteran of many recreational watercolour classes, the words, "Why didn't I think of that?" went through my head about twenty five times in the first half hour! A busy, yet relaxing and inspiring day. Can't wait to come again."

"It was inspirational! Sarah demonstrated different techniques and made it all look so easy. She spent time with everyone, building their confidence. With each new technique there was a handout explaining all the details (useful at home). We talked of composition, form and colour with the helpful eye of our tutor, who was genuinely pleased with our attempts. I have signed up for another session."

"Had a fab day! Class just the right size. The venue is superb, and lunch included is a lovely idea. I like the idea of using the materials supplied by you as you don't have to bring anything. A great day."
