Ishbel Fleming-Boyd put everyone at their ease and made this first art class of mine an enjoyable one. She was very welcoming, gauged well the levels of interest and ability of participants, enabled each of us to put pencil to paper early on and gave helpful comments and assistance as we each undertook our first painting using quality canvases and paints. I would highly recommend Ishbel for painting classes whether for novices like me or for more experienced people.

Amy Selig Apr 2024


Really enjoyed the class, we did initial exercises at the start which was helpful for certain techniques - although I was a complete beginner and probably could have benefitted from even more tips and guidance at the start on brush strokes and what to watch out for. The teacher had prepared a sketch for us to work from which was very helpful. we painted birds of paradise and would have loved to have the real thing available to reference.

Karl Harris Apr 2024


Brilliant, brilliant brilliant, Alma was fantastic, really patient taking us through the process. Two great pieces of art to show for our efforts. Highly recommend!

Lynn Mudditt Apr 2024


Really enjoyed the class, time seems to disappear so quickly!
Our teacher Ishbel was great, really good demonstration of techniques, and a chance to practice before we had to start our actual painting, which I really appreciated.

Yvonne Mar 2024


Really enjoyed the class. The teacher made us feel comfortable and was encouraging. The pace, structure and content of class was great. It was inspiring to be surrounded by Alma's beautiful art. The class was an inspiration to continue painting.

We had a lovely time - Alma was very knowledgeable and had lots of helpful tips to aid us in creating our art works. The evening was very well structured and above all fun - the time flew by and we were finished before we knew it. Would definitely recommend to anyone who's wanted to try painting abstract art but doesn't have much/any experience.

Libby Darlow Mar 2024


Alma created a really inviting easy atmosphere. For our end pieces, we were all wanting to do different things and she helped guide each person go through different processes for their painting. I had a lot of support during the class. Thank you Alma

The teacher Alma Tipon was very friendly and welcoming. They provided information on what paper, brushes and paints to buy if one wants to practice at home.
I enjoyed the experience a lot and got a good knowledge to start practicing at home.
It was nice that the number of people attending the class is no more than 6 people. Everyone gets enough time with the teacher.
I am very happy with the knowledge and skills I learned at this class.
And I am proud of my results

What a wonderful class Alma has been incredible and made us feel so welcomed in her studio! Time flew by as we created two pieces of textured art and she took so much care to guide us and explore the boundaries of the piece we were bringing to life. She shared with us her the best tools/products to purchase to make art in the most cost effective way! Truly a wonderful experience and look forward to joining one of her classes again soon!

Lucinda Mar 2024


What a lovely lovely class! Alma is a fab teacher, I would really recommend this as a focused relaxed activity

My second class with Alma and brilliant again. She is so well prepared and generous in offering a huge range of materials to use and tips on how to use them. I arrived with wacky idea and she could not have been more accommodating.

Textured Abstract Art Workshop review by Annie Houseago - London

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


This class would be great for people with some familiarity with painting or drawing. If you’re a true beginner, this may not be the right class for you. There were not many techniques presented at the beginning and with everyone doing a different painting, it lacked the structure and guidance that a true newbie needs.

John Leaver Feb 2024


Ramona is a very friendly and knowledge artist / tutor. She helped me paint in the style I wanted to and couldn't achieve before, even after watching numerous YouTube videos. She also showed me some great ways to warn up and draw and paint freely without restrictions.

I would recommend this workshop to any aspiring abstract artists.

Georgiana Feb 2024


The class was great. The coach is very pleasant. She was able to give us confidence to try different techniques despite our basic knowledge.

Petra Booth Feb 2024


Alma was a fantastic teacher - so generous with her skills and knowledge. The location was great, all materials were supplied and Alma did a wonderful job of making sure we all came away with work we were delighted with. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to try textured art!

Andrea Woodrow Feb 2024


I absolutely loved this class. Alma was so good at explaining textures and colours and I came away with two pieces of art I’ll be proud to display. Has definitely wetted my appetite to try doing more art myself and would definitely go back to do another class with Alma. If you’re not sure whether to give it a go, just book this course, you will not be disappointed.

Gandhi Kruti Feb 2024


BEST DAY EVER! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED I attended the textured art workshop and i genuinely had soo much fun and learnt a-lot! Alma is incredibly experienced and talented, a great trainer, fun, welcoming, attentive and supportive. She explained everything in detail and gave clear instructions and honest experienced opinions on the materials. She made the fun, creative side come out of me. Her studio is very cosy and welcoming, with lots of chocolates I cannot wait to put into practice what i have learnt and attend another one of her workshops soon. Thank you Alma for a brilliant day, i now have a new skill under my creative belt. See you soon! :) xoxoxo

Fabi Plat Feb 2024


Wow! Amazing texture class with Alma. I have learned so much and tried many different techniques to add texture and depth to my work. Loved it. Didn’t even feel the time passing. Thank you Alma. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Aaron Thomas Feb 2024


Super fun and relaxing painting session. Me and my partner did very different styles of paintings but we’re both very happy with them. I used one of the ocean references Alma provided and my partner used some abstract artwork. Both came out amazing with Alma’s help and encouragement.

Charles Pugh Jan 2024


Great class, I now have lots of tips that I can use to further improve my painting.

Alma was a great tutor and very informative. Everything was provided for and learned some great things during the workshop. Wish I could've stretched out time as it went so fast even though it was 6hrs long (& I was far from finished. Some others did finish their pieces though)! Highly recommend it :)

Lucy Culshaw Jan 2024


Great course with Alma! Really exciting to experiment with new materials and learn from a very friendly and talented teacher. The day allowed plenty of time for hands on learning and most people finished their pieces in time , with recommendations on how to develop their piece of they wished. Overall a fun day of textured abstract painting!

Danielle Perez Jan 2024


Absolutely brilliant! I highly recommend it. Alma is an amazing artist and teacher. Very talented, patient and so inspiring! I was very tired and frozen after a long journey, and really not in a creative mood when I arrived. However, I forgot about the tiredness and the freezing cold outside as learnt so much during the day! It was just fascinating. I don't know anything about technique, but Alma helped me learn new skills with brilliant tips. I experienced more than I created. Unlike my lovely fellow students who produced magnificent pieces of art and knew exactly what they wanted, I produced something that I did not particularly like, but it was a fantastic learning experience and time flew. As the group was small (6) Alma was able to help and teach each of us new skills. Really brilliant. If you book thing go for this one!

Glenda Higgins Jan 2024


Excellent day. Alma was so welcoming and encouraging. I was thrilled with my work that I took away. I learned new skills and am inspired to explore textured art further. Looking forward to working with Alma again. Many thanks.

Ishbel was a lovely host and teacher. She made us feel comfortable and at ease, gave a good intro to what to expect, and included some small exercises to loosen us up into the main part of the class. All materials were provided and we got to take a canvas of our artworks home. I learnt some handy tips on materials and how to approach ideas for abstract art pieces which was most beneficial to me as I'd got stuck in the abstract art I'd been doing and needed some guidance. Will definitely look to do further courses through this studio.

Jonathan Hurst Dec 2023


A fantastic class run by Ishbel who was very knowledgeable and thankfully very non-judgmental. We’re really happy with the experience and will be back!

A very enjoyable way to spend two and a half hours, which flew by. The teacher was welcoming, experienced, and and shared some important techniques with us. The studio we worked in was filled with inspiring work that made one feel part of an artist community. I will definitely be back!

Anonymised ClassBento student Dec 2023


Really great class, Alma spent a lot of time to help each class member and was very considerate to stay overtime to give us the chance to finish our pieces.

Shipra Gupta Nov 2023


Alma is a very hands on and patient tutor. Her love for art and what brings out the best in her students is what drives her. She is an awesome host too.
I have just come out of my 6hr workshop and haven’t felt this accomplished in a long long time!
I am definitely going back for more.

Debbie Mayers Nov 2023

Alma was so nice and a great teacher! I learned so much in this class and also had a great time. The studio was very nice, the atmosphere was chill, and it was a great way to spend a few hours. I would recommend this class to anyone who wants to practice/learn texture painting!

Helen Strathearn Nov 2023


I was already familiar with (and love) Alma's art and I was really looking forward to attending one of her classes today. It didn't disappoint at all - I've had a lovely day and learnt lots. Alma is a warm and encouraging teacher and the classroom set up was cosy and the atmosphere relaxing. I loved being surrounded by Alma's own art but also particularly enjoyed the fresh flowers and music. There were plenty of refreshments available, and Alma was also generous with the materials available to us. The class was great value for money and I will definitely be booking more.

Marta Oppenheim Nov 2023


Great class! Alma is a very engaged and helpful teacher! The materials were very good quality and there was plenty of different paint colours and brushes to choose from. Highly recommend for a relaxing evening with friends!

Elizabeth Ogunleye Sep 2023


I had a wonderful time and really enjoyed my textured art class with Alma.
It was very therapeutic and relaxing for me; I came away confident and inspired to further explore this craft. I was able to create my first textured art piece with the guidance of Alma. I will definitely book more classes with her. I highly recommend. Thank you very much Alma you're a great art teacher! ✨️ ✨️

Carolyn Greenwood Sep 2023


The class was fun. There was no pressure to produce beautiful art, but rather on the exploration of the different textures. Alma was encouraging, helpful and a nice person to be around. It was a great experience.

Adam Walker Sep 2023

Sandie Ennis Jul 2023


I loved it; Alma is warm and welcoming; her studio was well organised for classes with lots of quality professional materials to use without limitation and great snacks too. She perfectly balances instruction and space to explore personal style and creativity. We had a beneficial introduction to materials and the best way to use them, learnt the importance of layering utilising a variety of acrylic paste, gels, beads, pouring acrylics, and various other textures. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn about textured abstract art and take home a fantastic piece. It was relaxing, fun and brilliant value for money.

Millie Dawkins Jul 2023


Loved this class! Alma was so knowledgeable and helpful, everything felt relaxed and inspiring. Feeling very excited to use the tools she's taught and create more art!

Xiaodan Deng Jun 2023


My friend and I had a great time painting with Alma. She helped me a lot along the way to get the technique right . The seascape came out great! It was such a fun and uk filling experience

I SO enjoyed the Sea scape painting class with Alma!
Alma made sure we all felt pampered and special. The room was full of so many edible treats for a start and very well stocked with all the art materials and inspiration we could possibly want.
Having not painted for a while and not feeling very confident, I couldn't have wished for a better environment and teacher.
Alma is gentle, relaxed and totally professional. I felt in good hands and I cannot recommend her highly enough. (She's actually too nice and generous- the class ran way over!)
I can't wait to book another class with Almarelaxed atmosphere, lovely music. If it's a chilled fun environment you're looking for to rediscover art, or if you're a complete beginner- look no further, you've found your home in Alma!
I'm thinking it would make a great group birthday idea or a special treat as a group for any reason. I actually came on my own and bonded with the group who were lovely. Absolute bargain. Can't wait to go again.
Thanks Alma!

Another great experience with Alma. She took us through the basics of watercolor including tools and techniques, and then had us do a few exercises before starting on the main painting. She can kindly sketched out the painting for us so that all we had to do was focus on the painting. I learned a lot and the atmosphere of the classes is always really fun and relaxing. I would definitely recommend any class with her!

This is a wonderful class which is a lovely introduction to textures. Alma is a great teacher, she has the perfect balance of teaching techniques and then giving you the space to create something of your own. You don't feel like you're copying but she's there to help you if you get stuck.
The studio is lovely and Alma makes you feel really welcome and at home. She provides all the materials and explains the best way to use them. And considering how expensive some of the materials are, I think this class is great value for money.
I would highly recommend to anyone that wants to learn about textured abstract art.
What did you like most?

The class was great, there were people of different levels in the class but Alma made sure she catered to everyone and gave each person tailored help. It was a nice size, only 7 of us and a really relaxed atmosphere. She also let us stay late to finish our work which was really nice. As a complete beginner I learnt a lot and really enjoyed it.

Teresa Tang Nov 2022

Gill Coates Nov 2022


An amazing afternoon with alma, learning a new skill. She provides all equipment (as well as teas and coffees and snacks) and the expertise. I found the class of 7 people was the right amount as she was able to spend enough time with each person so that they felt supported.
I’m looking up other courses she does as she is great!

Extremely enjoyable and relaxing class! Alma was very friendly, patient and engaging. She was also hospitable and constantly offered refill of beverages. Learnt some really cool watercolour techniques and and the final piece was nicely framed to take home when completed. Class has reignited my flame to pursue art as a hobby (which I haven't done since high school). Curious to see what her other classes are like. Thanks for a fun evening Alma!

I loved my watercolour class with Alma. The session was very informative and I came away with new skills and a mounted painting to be proud of! The studio was a lovely, quiet space with offerings of drinks and snacks while we worked - I’d definitely recommend this to anyone looking to start/improve their painting techniques or even just looking for a day out :)
