My daughter and I had a lovely time. We’re both beginners and the session was very chilled and relaxed. I feel we both learnt a lot and it’s given us confidence to carry on painting.

We had such a great time, Gordon was very friendly and encouraging and had a great sense of humour and we both left having learnt and felt supported and also had lots of laughter and very interesting chats… we’ll be back again for sure!

Great experience! We highly recommend this activity to beginners as well as more advanced levels. We learned a lot about the materials and the techniques, managed to have a first attempt at implementing them and with what we learned we will be able to continue exploring oil painting at home.

I didn't have a gift card, I paid full price but it was worth it and the class was therapeutic. Gordon is a really passionate and encouraging teacher.

Gordon was great. My second ever attempt at oil painting and he was very understanding but also constructive. Nice explanation of materials too. Would happily have another session once I have practised a bit

My daughter and I had a very joyous afternoon. We were given great guidance and had fun learning about art history at the same time. I would highly recommend this class.

This oil painting class was a wonderful way to jump back in to painting again. Gordon provided very helpful guidance on mixing paints, using oil as a medium, building the composition and adding details. He facilitated a pressure-free environment that encouraged us to have fun and to build confidence! I was very pleased with the painting I started in his class, and can’t wait to continue working on it.
