Thanks for the lesson today Gordon. It was helpful to have a formal drawing lesson to get me started towards drawing people. I will keep practicing from today! Very informative and I learned a few new tricks and techniques to build upon. You are very encouraging as a teacher to help beginners like myself. Thanks again!

We had a wonderful time doing this class. We did it as a family: two adults and two children, aged 10 and 12. One of us is a complete beginner and the other three are a bit more experienced, and we all learnt a lot and enjoyed ourselves. Gordon is a patient and kind teacher and made it a lot of fun. We would highly recommend this class.

Fantastic personalised instruction. I'm sure this class would be even better in person, where the teacher could critique your technique more easily, but I think it's great they're still able to run the class virtually.

The one to one lesson I had surpassed all expectation. Well constructed, effective teaching methods and wonderful. I gained the confidence to make a mark on my pad and was elated

What a great experience! I'm a beginner and the fundamental aspects of drawing technique and tools which Gordon explained have made a big difference to what I'm able to achieve. Now I can get better results from my attempts and see more clearly what I can do to improve. Gordon was patient, enthusiastic and able to give incisive direction. I really enjoyed the time and would highly recommend Gordon's tuition.

I did not take the class and could not cancel, I had an accident and did try and cancel but it did not let me, very disappointing as I would have booked again but not going to now.
