1. At 8 years old Ben began working with me learning to draw and paint. At 10 years old, he was keen to developing a strong foundation of practical skills and knowledge of art materials. He became confident sketching quickly and accurately from his surroundings, building a library of knowledge. Now studying how oils work. He has a strong ambition to be an accomplished artist. From no concentration or direction Ben is now in charge of his own work. An enormous leap in confidence and quality of artwork.
2. Alex - 50 years, was keen to revive his own art. Now refreshed with clear demonstrations and guidelines - he is off enjoying his favourite pastime.
