Mandala Drawing & Painting Class

Thank you, Ubie, for the Mandala course. It was fun and full of beautiful colors. For the first time, I enjoyed using colors thanks to your guidance. Thank you for the watercolor painting course. I look forward to joining the rest of your courses by attending or online.

We learnt the principles of a mandala, drawing it step-by-step so we built up our own unique picture. Ubie was friendly and patient and explained everything clearly as we went along. I took this class with my son so it was lovely to spend time together doing something different. Once we had created our mandala, Ubie explained colour theory and what colours went with each other. By the end of the afternoon I took home a picture I am really proud of. Ubie and Matt made us feel so welcome in their lovely home and gave us tea and biscuits! Would recommend this class.

Enjoyed this class very much. Learnt new techniques and ideas which I plan on incorporating into my own work. Plan on taking more classes in the future with Ubie.

I learnt the basic rules and techniques for creating mandala art works. All of the equipment was provided as well as some reference materials for inspiration. When it came to the painting, we were given the opportunity to explore three different water colour methods as well as markers. Ubie is a great teacher. She provided good instruction and was available to help us at any point. She gave encouraging advice based on her knowledge and experience. Her and Matt welcomed us to the venue and are friendly and genuinely nice. I liked that the class size was small, we could interact with each other and Ubie. This class was held in the Cass Art Islington store which was convenient for me. The staff were accommodating even though it was busy. There was plenty of space for 4 of us and it did not bother me that customers were watching or interacting with our group. I really enjoyed this class and would love to attend other classes run be Ubie in the future.

The Angel venue was a great location for me, a few mins walk from station. The Cass store was bright & airy and walking through the door got me into an 'antistic' mood. Ubie & Matt made me feel very welcome and relaxed as being 'a non painter' I didnt feel very confident. Ubie is a great teacher explaining each process in detail, patient, supportive, always on hand when I got stuck and offered the perfect suggestion! It was worth the visit just to view the amazing Mandalas she created and had on display! I will be returning!

An excellent workshop, efficiently organised and run by Ubie and Matt. I learnt a great deal, and appreciated the sensitive and patient one-to-one coaching and encouragement. I look forward to my next class with Ubie Design!

I really enjoyed this course, just the right amount of instruction, it was completely engrossing and required full concentration. Very accessible by public transport. Great fun, highly recommended.

Very interesting and relaxing class with Ubie, a wonderful teacher! I definitely recommend to anyone even for the less artistic minds like myself :)

It was a lovely and fun class. Ubie made everything fun and personable and Matt is the friendliest host. Relaxing environment with a great deal of fun and art work to take away with. Ubie provides the highest quality of art supply during the class which was a treat.

I had a lovely day learning how to draw mandalas in the morning and then learning about colour theory and painting my mandala in the afternoon. Ubie is a great teacher, very patient and explains things very well. There was also a lovely calm and welcoming atmosphere and Ubie and Matt were excellent hosts. I will be booking onto more courses as I had such a lovely day. Thank you both.

I attended the drawing and painting class and was initially unsure about whether it would be too long of a day. I was pleasantly surprised that by the end, I was still wanting to draw and paint! The time flies very quickly, as you are in such a comfortable and encouraging setting. The class is small and in a space that gives you a lot of attention and guidance. Ubie and Matt are very friendly and welcoming, and this made the experience even more enjoyable, as the environment is positive and uplifting. I left with a greater sense and appreciation of art, but more importantly, a desire to continue with drawing and painting. I look forward to attending more of Ubie's classes and highly recommend trying it, even if you have never taken any art classes. Just show up with an open mind and eagerness to learn!

Thank you Ubie for an amazing day drawing and painting. You made it all so easy. I was amazed at what I produced at the end of the day.

I had a great time drawing my first own mandala and then paint one. It was really relaxing and Ubie and her husband were very welcoming and lovely people. The music was really relaxing too. There was a lot of help and testing and tea. Thank you Ubie and Matt.

I extremely am happy with Ubie’s teaching. She is super talented and her teaching skills are excellent. I would highly recommend her classes. I have done 2 classes so far and surely would come back again anytime. Highly highly recommend

I attended both the drawing and painting class and I had an amazing time! Absolutely loved it! Ubie is really nice and great teacher, very professional and patient.I’m really happy with my progress, especially as I’m a beginner. Lovely venue too! Highly recommended

What a wonderful art class. Ubie is so lovely, patient and talented. I learned absolutely loads from the both sessions -the painting one is just as good as the drawing!! Highly recommended and I am really excited about the Mandotla course too :)

I participated in a full-day drawing and watercolour painting workshop. It took me 2 hours to get there but it was worth it! The group was small which was great because everyone received indyvidual attention and support from Ubie. It was an absolutely new experience for me and I received step by step guidance of drawing and painting mandala. Ubie and Matt are super patient and enthusiastic and we had a very nice chat :) It was a very satysfying day and I am really pleased with my mandala :) I would definitely recommend doing this workshop with Ubie and Matt!

Perfect for learning the skills to draw mandalas. A good range of materials were provided, including the tools needed and lots of examples, including books. The environment was relaxed, friendly and uncompetitive.

This was a totally new discipline for me. Although I don't consider myself an artist I loved the symmetry of designing my Mandala. Ubie was very patient and excellent at guiding my choices of pattern and colour. The time flew by!

Thank you for such a lovely class - it made for a really absorbing day out, and it was great to bring home a finished piece completed during the day. I liked the fact that we dived in straight away with expert help all along the way if we got stuck. Venue was perfect and one day was just right to get enough practise to continue at home.
