Recent reviews of Introduction to Ink and Watercolour Architecture

  • 5/5 from Julie Gwilt, attended Jun 2026: A lovely afternoon learning techniques with ink. The class was well paced for everyone, with plenty of time to practice the technique. The atmosphere was so relaxing. Lots of information to build my skills on.
  • 5/5 from Angela Gault, attended Jun 2026: This was a very enjoyable introduction to drawing with ink pens and using watercolour washes. You will be guided step by step through the main principles and at the end you will be able to incorporate the techniques you have learnt into an ink and watercolour painting. Sarah is very supportive and gives you many tips and techniques. This was a great gift, I loved the sessions and I plan to sign up for more classes with Sarah.
  • 5/5 from Gillian Schofield, attended Mar 2026: A very good and clearly presented introduction to pen and wash. Only problem is I want to buy two of the example pens! Looking forward to developing the techniques over the next 3 weeks
