Anna was incredibly friendly and taught many techniques. The class was very well planned out and extremely informative. I will definitely be recommending Anna to friends and family who want to discover beauty of painting.

Eleanor Barron • Mar 2024

Absolutely loved my class with Anna! She is so kind and talented, and walked me through all the steps with such care. Had the loveliest chats and tea, making for a very cosy evening learning something new

Teacher's response

Thank you Eleanor! It was so nice to chat, with a cup of tea and a couple of brushes and paints. You are a natural, so buy the bare minimum and keep painting, for yourself or for others! beautiful things will come out! :)

Raffaella • Feb 2024

Brilliant class. Anna is a talented artist and a great teacher. I learned a lot of techniques in the class (how to paint bricks, bushes, shades etc.) and left it happy, relaxed and very satisfied with the outcome, a nice little watercolour of a building. I would definitely book another class with Anna.

Teacher's response

Grazie Raffaella! It was a pleasure to meet you and I would love to see you again!
You were great but after all, like mother like daughter ;)

Lorraine Popely • Feb 2024

Had a lovely morning learning how to watercolour, would definitely recommend! Teacher was so friendly and patient and I really enjoyed learning the different techniques. Learnt skills that I can now further practice on at home :)

Teacher's response

Hi Lorraine, Thank you for the lovely review. It is a pleasure to read that you now feel comfortable practising on your own, thanks to the lesson. It means a lot!
And remember, the trick is not to overthink it ;)

Teacher's response

Alison Wrigley • Feb 2024

We had a really lovely morning learning to draw buildings. Teacher was able to spend time one-on-one with each of us to give specific advice and guidance that we'll be able to use in future. The environment was relaxed with background music and hot drinks provided, so it was a perfect activity!

Teacher's response

Thank you Alison for your kind review! It's been a pleasure to spend the morning with you and I was really impressed with all of your drawings :)
Very well done! Anna

Ivy Ng • Jan 2024

Anna is very nice and her teaching is easy to follow. As a complete beginner of watercolor I learnt a few basic techniques which I could paint on my own by the end of the session. :)

Teacher's response

Hi Ivy,
Thank you very much for the kind review. I'm happy to read that you're satisfied and ready to paint on your own from now on :)

Shahad • Nov 2023

Immersing myself in the watercolor workshop was a remarkable journey, largely shaped by an exceptional instructor. Her adept teaching style seamlessly translated intricate techniques into accessible steps, fostering an environment of both learning and creativity. The personalized feedback underscored a commitment to individual growth. This workshop not only honed my skills but ignited a lasting passion for watercolor—an experience I wholeheartedly recommend to those seeking a transformative artistic exploration.

The teacher was excellent and very friendly despite me being late. The traffic was awful and Google had the journey time quite wrong.

Laura Peterson • Oct 2023

Wonderful class! Anna was a knowledgeable and patient teacher. I now have a souvenir from my trip to London that I made!

Teacher's response

Thank you Laura for your kind review, I'm very glad you liked it! :)

Another amazing class with Anna and I would not recommend her class enough. I found it difficult to do it on my own before the class but feel so much more confident now. Thanks a lot!

Teacher's response

I love when people come back for the drawing class! It is always a pleasure to reveal my tricks, which are very simple but absolutely effective! I'm very happy you feel more confident with it now :) thank you!

One of the best classes I have attended! Anna walked us through the steps and techniques and explained it very clear. She created a wonderful and calming environment for us to paint. We had the opportunity to apply the painting techniques to a beautiful building portrait. Thank you so much Anna!

Teacher's response

Thank you darling for your nice comment! It's been a pleasure to meet you and to help you discover your talent :) If you'd like to practice more and need assistance on it, please do not hesitate to contact me!

S Bhujel • Sep 2023

Anna is a great teacher. She took the time to explain how to use the brush and how to use specific techniques to add interesting details to a painting. It was very informative for an absolute beginner.

Teacher's response

And you did very well as a total beginner! my aim is to make brushes less scary for first-time users watercolour is a very delicate technique and it's a lot about getting used to your brush and water. And you were Aaaaamazing! thank you for joining and I hope this was the first of many paintings :)

Makoto Inoue • Aug 2023

I am very happy that I took Anna's class.
Prior to the class, I watched lots of online courses and read books but wasn't happy with my paintings and wasn't quite sure what I was doing wrong. I was also not quite sure the tools and equipment I have (I bought a basic watercolour set a week before the course) but didn't know who to ask what to buy.

Anna was very friendly and answered all my questions patiently.
Anna was also really good at paying attention to each student and give constant feedback which I appreciated a lot.
There's so much you can learn in person and I highly recommend Anna's workshop.

Teacher's response

Hi Makoto! Thank you very much for taking the time to review my class. I was very happy to share what I know, especially about the materials to be used, so that you can start this new hobby without buying unnecessary things and having more fun :)

Victoria • Aug 2023

Lovely class covering basic painting technique and then applying to produce a single painting of a floral arrangement. Materials provided were first rate, and class given in the home felt very welcoming and personal. We were total beginners and she patiently walked us through.

Teacher's response

Thank you Victoria for the kind words and for choosing to spend some time painting with me! You were both incredibly good and I hope you will hang your masterpieces somewhere at home, because they really deserve to be displayed :)

Dee Khalid • Jul 2023

I had an absolutely amazing experience with this drawing class! The teacher was not only friendly but also incredibly patient and knowledgeable. She guided me step by step throughout the process, allowing me to create a truly beautiful piece of art. The class took place in a very nice location and setup which added to the overall ambiance. Thanks to her expert guidance, I now have the skills and techniques needed to recreate this on my own. I highly recommend her classes for anyone looking to enhance their artistic abilities!

Teacher's response

Thank you Dee for participating in the class and for the wonderful words.
Your drawing was lovely, so I really hope to see it again, once painted and finished! Super well done!
