Carol, May 2024​

"I’ve had great fun practising my newly learnt skills.  All that I hoped to achieve from the workshops - a looser style, working quicker, being able to work without needing magnifying lenses - has been achieved, and more. What has emerged in me is a new attitude to my art in that I no longer worry about it being perfect but about enjoying the process of portraying what is in front of me. Emma is a gifted teacher - as well as being a very pleasant person who made the sessions so enjoyable as well as productive.

 

Here’s my first attempt, and then a couple of examples from the end of the course. What isn’t captured here is the increased enjoyment in drawing and painting I gained from those first efforts to how I feel when drawing and painting now".
