I loved hearing about her background, she was so supportive and her approach was really refreshing.

Thank you Fanny!

There is a very generous offering of materials and it is thrilling to go home with a canvas. Free enough to give individual expression but Fanny provided support and great ideas at just the right time. I wasn't even really in the right head space when I arrived, but I was kindly welcomed and made to feel very relaxed. Supported in making a lot of new discoveries and have had my enthusiasm for painting recharged. Really recommend as a very special and enriching experience. Thank you!

Fanny was very helpful and generous with her time, part guiding me on techniques and tools, and part letting me run with it and see what happened. It was great to paint freely and learn to let go. She made it a lot of fun. If it was available (affordable) as a regular drop in class I'd sign up.
