  • 5/5 from Fernanda Said, attended May 2026: It was a great experience, very relaxing, great environment and the teacher was lovely, very patient and good techiniques, I would definitely recommend it.
  • 5/5 from Peter Oller, attended Mar 2025: Teacher was great. Lovely experience.
  • 5/5 from Summer Xie, attended Dec 2024: Lovely therapeutic session where you can enjoy the peacefulness in mind. Eva is a very creative artist and brilliant teacher. We had a Christmas-themed session and made our own creative cards to take home with. I enjoyed this workshop a lot and would definitely recommend anyone who wants to try water painting!
  • 5/5 from Nicholas Lidwell, attended Aug 2024: Enjoyable class with kind and knowlegeable teacher, Eva. She showed useful techniques and I learnt a lot.
  • 3/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Apr 2024: The teacher was lovely and helpful when we asked for help. As we were complete beginners we were expecting more teaching and guidance to help us. She showed the basic techniques really well at the beginning but mostly she just stood at the front and painted her own picture without really explaining what she was doing. Overall a lovely evening. Really enjoyed it.
  • 5/5 from Kelsey Mulder, attended Feb 2024: Had a great time. Eva gave very clear instructions and I learned so much! Would definitely come back for another one.
  • 5/5 from Emma, attended Dec 2023: Great teacher, venue and materials. Really enjoyable, laid back class for all levels of experience
  • 4/5 from Helen, attended Oct 2023: Very friendly teacher and good structure with demonstrations at the start and then 1hr30 to practise the techniques and paint a landscape based on a photo provided by the teacher. Great materials and wide colour palette. However, the teaching element was fairly limited so I would recommend as a fun and social activity (BYOB makes it extra special!) but not the best place really to improve and learn new techniques.
  • 5/5 from Serena, attended Sep 2023: Eva our teacher was really great. She was very down to earth and made us all feel relaxed. She had wine glasses prepared and everything set out on the tables. She gave us a demonstration on different techniques we could use. As we were all new to water colour she made us feel comfortable to ask questions and gave us all a confidence boost. We all had such a great time. I would definitely recommend to others.
  • 5/5 from Kayleigh, attended Sep 2023: Really enjoyed this experience. We did it for a friend's birthday and it was great. It was very relaxing and chilled. Eva was a great teacher, she gave us some techniques and then we all just had a go.
