I loved this course! Sally us so encouraging and I felt so much more confident and free in my drawing at the end of each session.

I have just finished this course and I’m so glad I booked onto it. Sally is fantastic and showed us the process of how her drawings evolve, which was fascinating.
Each week we tried something new to draw and Sally introduced us to different materials and ways of working. There was lots of guidance in developing our own skills. It was lots of fun in supportive environment. I wish I could do the whole course again – Thank you!

I never wanted this course to end! I love Sally’s bubbly teaching style and the freedom to experiment with different materials and techniques under an expert eye. It’s a lovely venue and a fantastic course that’s spurred me on to draw more.

This was a lovely course with great content and encouraged me to try media I hadn’t tried before. Sally was a great tutor and helped me build my confidence as I hadn’t done any drawing for years.
