The feeling of wellbeing is priceless. The regular classes that are held at different venues are for all ages and all levels of achievement. Having a good friendly group around you helps with the creative process and is also a great social event.

As well as the regular classes, David runs full day workshops of different themes. The introductory or refresher workshops are designed to help you practice with your medium and to see how it works before applying those techniques to actual subjects. A well as traditional watercolour and pencil techniques there is a chance to have fun using other techniques including straws, cling film and sea salt as alternative creative methods. But still maintaining that sense of fun and enjoyment. The two introduction/refresher workshops are firstly in pencil and then usually a week later in watercolour. David also runs and introduction to oils.
