• 5/5 from Lynne Bennett, attended Nov 2025: Really enjoyed my first time. Teacher was very good at instruction and materials supplied were lovely. Will definitely go again.
• 5/5 from Mark Burch, attended Nov 2025: Easy to book, friendly and warm welcome at Waddesdon made the evening start in a fantastic way. The course is well structured, easy to follow even for those who haven’t picked up a brush before. Every step carefully explained to ensure you are able to create your masterpiece. Plenty of breaks to stretch your legs, compare yours with your friends and of course to refuel those glasses at the bar. Mine is new ever going to hang in the Tate Modern but it’s all my own work and of course an original. Well tutored, plenty of laughs as well as a bit of singing adds to a fun filled evening. Already booked for December for another great evening out with family and friends.
• 5/5 from Karen, attended Nov 2025: Friends birthday. Wanted something different from pub or restaurant and painting was the ideal choice. A really relaxed atmosphere and other friendly people helped us enjoy ourselves. We actually managed a painting that we could be proud of and agreed it would be much easier and better a 2nd time. Definitely recommend.

• 5/5 from Rena Jenkins, attended Nov 2024: Tutor was excellent, very friendly and guided us through the painting in easy steps. This was my third class, I found this the most challenging so far. What I love about these classes is that whatever your ability everyone finishes with a completed painting. I think these sessions are great value for money.
• 5/5 from Miki Salway, attended Nov 2024: We went for a fun night out as a group of friends. The painting looked so lovely we all felt we wanted to create it ourselves.
