Teacher's response
Thank you, Anonymized, for your feedback. I apologize for not meeting your expectations regarding the studio ambiance and art medium. Few points I would like to mention to meet future customer’s expectations:
1. Classes which are small in size (6 people or less) are taught in my private studio. Bigger groups of 7 to 50 are taught in the artists’ teaching room. This a lovely room with sofas, tables, coffee making machine, chairs, paintings, etc). I can’t agree it’s an industrial facility.
2. On several occasions the organiser got in touch with me requesting to bring their own drinks and I kindly agreed. Although there was a considerable amount of alcohol brought on the premises I did put out 4 bottles of wine in an unlikely event more alcohol would be needed. It was left on the table untouched, understandably.
4. During the art class as we progressed to the topic of painting there were some remarks from attendees that they were surprised that we will be painting and as some of your group members correctly stated it was indeed a “ paint and sip ‘ class, so the painting was included. There was no mentioning at all about preference of a medium. I would be able to provide pastels, acrylics or watercolours if requested. Usually I suggest trying oil paints as these are the most beginner friendly
3. A 4 canvas is a reasonable size for a beginner to finish in 2 hour time. The canvases are of a high quality and brought directly from Jackson’s art supplies. This is a great canvas and size for a beginner to work with.
Your comments have been noted. I appreciate your valuable input and hope to welcome you back soon.
Many thanks
Katya

Teacher's response
Thank you, Lauren, for your lovely review! I am delighted to hear that you and your family had a great experience. Some things I would like to comment on : We would have given 5 stars but:
1. The instructor arrived 30 mins late due to tube strikes - Although I did arrive late , I did get in touch an hour before the start of the lesson to let you know beforehand and the class was finished 30 min later to ensure you have received the correct amount of painting time . I am extremely lenient with time and no one felt rushed to leave .
2. There was only 2 glasses of wine each, although coffee was offered - but lunch was lovely. I would have been happy to provide extras if requested.
3. More chairs were probably needed as there were only 2 between 5. Thank you for letting me know, I will ensure more chairs are available.
4. We could have done with a little bit more assistance. I was always in the studio giving a detailed instruction, correcting and improving paintings as requested… I am not sure how much more I could have done without stopping the paintings being ‘ your ‘ creation. The paintings have to be ‘ yours ‘ ! Good or bad and the perfection will only come with practice.
