  • 5/5 from Ginny Wilson, attended Oct 2023: Really enjoyed this course. We had a very knowledgeable, friendly and supportive tutor who talked us through a number of paint pouring techniques. Would definitely recommend and I am looking forward to taking my art work home.
  • 5/5 from Nicola Raper, attended Oct 2023: We really enjoyed this course and such value for money. Didn't realise that you also get a kit to take home. Definitely started a new hobby.
  • 5/5 from David Barker, attended Oct 2023: Lovely teacher, friendly and helpful. We had a fantastic session and such great value when the paint pouring kit is the price of the course. Added bonus, this is a messy craft so doing it somewhere that wasn't my house was a bonus. Highly recommended!
  • 5/5 from Caroline Hornsby, attended Feb 2023: The teacher and materials were good. I got good results first timeand it was quite relaxing which is great for wellbeing.
  • 5/5 from Jane Franks, attended Jan 2023: Excellent class, highly recommended. Good fun, learnt how to dirty pour and clean pour, plus silicone and glitter. An amazing box of goodies to take away with you. Plenty of experimenting to do.
  • 5/5 from Anjum Rajput, attended Dec 2022: Great teacher who was knowledgable on the subject. Loved the box of resources - very generous. Learnt a lot of techniques
  • 4/5 from Tania Chew, attended Dec 2022: The workshop was for acrylic pouring onto canvasses. We were given a kit set which was quite impressive and we used this for the class. It also included 5 canvasses. We used 3 canvasses during the session. There was plenty left over from the kit to take home. Tuition was good and she was very helpful. Would definitely explore other workshops at hobbycraft at Guiseley. Would like if they did the next level up.
  • 5/5 from Angela Blakey, attended Oct 2022: Great value for money. Teacher was great and only me and teacher in the workshop so basically a 1:1. Fantastic I loved the lesson and made 2 pours which I love. I would highly recommend this workshop
  • 5/5 from Lynda Lewis, attended Oct 2022: Great workshop one to one learning. Jackie was informative, friendly and very helpful. Definitely worth it. Pouring paints provided during this workshop and a pouring paint pack to take home.
  • 5/5 from Susan Taylor, attended Sep 2022: The class was made enjoyable and constructive. The trainer made me feel so confident that I had lots of fun, the hour flew by. I’d recommend this to friends
  • 5/5 from Rachel Court, attended Aug 2022: I arrived and Jackie introduced herself and explained what we would be doing and also gave me my kit that came with booking the class. My class was 1-2-1 as there was only me booked on. Jackie was amazing, she gave me some good tips and was able to answer all my questions I had. Honestly if she hadn’t have said don’t over think it with colours and design, my designs wouldn’t have turned out so amazing, I just listened to what she said and everything just flowed so perfectly. I used the paints Jackie put out, there was a lot of selection and lots of different tools to use too. It’s the best £35 I’ve spent, I’ve come away knowing so much more and also did 3 canvases which I’ll collect next week once dry. Jackie was so friendly and welcoming and I’m so grateful she delivered my class this evening. I would highly recommend this class to everyone who wants to learn a little more about acrylic pouring, I’ve come away with so much from this class. Thank you Jackie for an amazing evening. Rachel….x

  • 4/5 from Louise Ca, attended Jun 2022: Good hour enjoyable good value would have liked to have seen more methods like hairdryer blowing or pouring over an object
  • 4/5 from Louise Spencer, attended Dec 2021: The instructor was ok - I felt the instructions could have been clearer, and more advice given. The pack of equipment we got was very good. Hopefully I can use the rest to get better!
  • 5/5 from Charlotte Norton, attended Oct 2021: The class was really enjoyable and informative. All the materials we needed to make a lot of pictures were provided in individual boxes so we could bring it all home after. A very relaxing and enjoyable class.
