  • "If you are thinking of restarting your art and painting skills then classes taught by Dawn are the forum to do this. As a returning student after a 40 year break I greatly benefitted from expert encouragement and advice from Dawn who helped me hone long forgotten skills, restore my confidence and remind me of the sheer joy of art.”

    Richard Buchanan (Watercolour and Mixed Media)

  • ‘’Having sessions with Dawn has been fabulous. Her expertise, engaging teaching style and encouraging approach has enabled me to develop my painting skills way beyond my expectations. I love every session we have, always learning something new!”

    Teresa Lamy (1:1 Acrylic Painting Lessons)
