Very relaxed and friendly, I really enjoyed it and felt inspired ​-  ​Sarah, Herts.

I am really enjoying the art class - first time I've allowed myself "to play" with art rather than trying to get a perfect picture. Nicki creates a welcoming atmosphere, conducive to having a go, along with a lot of patience.​

Enjoyed the collage - what an interesting way of getting ideas for colours, textures, shapes etc, - Lynda, Herts
FAQS
  • Do I need to be able to draw?
          No. The classes are suitable for complete beginners. so if you've never pricked up a paintbrush before, don't worry, 

  • How long is a class?
          We aim for 90 minutes, but allow 2 hours, in case we get carried away!

  • What if i book and then can't make it?
          To ensure individual tuition and feedback, places are limited, but don't worry if you can't make it or you're in a different time zone, The live class is recorded and I'll send you the link so you can join in afterwards. 

  • How much does it cost?
          £10. Concessions are available, just message me for details.
​          If 2 people want to attend from one household, you only need to pay per webcam, so if you're sat next to each other at the table, you only need to book one place..

  • Are the classes suitable for children?
          While the classes are aimed at adults, children over 10 can follow along very easily, and we have had whole families taking part together. Children under 10 would need adult support with materials and techniques.

  • What materials do I need?
          There is a basic list below, and when you book I'll send you a complete list so you can get ready. We can adapt the session to use any paint and collage resources you have at home. But if you're buying paint I recommend acrylic as it dries quickly.

What Materials Will I Need?

Every week you'll need  a basic toolkit of paint and collage materials:
​
  • Paper and pen to make notes
  • Plenty of paper or card to work on. Wallpaper lining paper is good, or sugar paper, watercolour paper, mixed media paper etc. A3 is a good size, but you could work bigger on A2 or slightly smaller on A4
  • Pencil for sketching (any)
  • Paint – water based eg acrylic, gouache or ready mix paint.
  • Brushes -  large, small, hard and soft - a pack of children’s brushes is ideal.
  • Water pot
  • Plastic tray or paper plates to use as a palette
  • ​Selection of magazines and coloured and textured papers for collage, this could include leaflets, newspapers, old wrapping paper, food labels etc
  • Kitchen towel for keeping things clean
  • Scissors
  • Glue eg Pritt stick
  • It’s a good idea to cover your surfaces with a sheet, and wear an apron and gloves as things might get messy. ​

Workshop reviews:

Really enjoyed the art workshop. I found it interesting seeing what the other people in the group produced and to see how different everyone’s art was.  I would definitely recommend the class to other friends and would like to do another class too. ​Jackie 
 

This workshop was super. It gave me the confidence to experiment with techniques, and gave me the inspiration to carry on creating art afterwards. Lynda
