Harriet was an excellent teacher .We all improved under her tuition although it was only a two day course.

My friend and I had a brilliant time on this course. Harriet is a very calm and patient teacher. She really pushed us to be confident and not overthink our brush strokes. It was particularly rewarding to do a course that allowed us so much time painting rather than watching demonstrations. Thanks Harriet, looking forward to the next one!

Your Teacher

B. 1990. Harriet trained for 3 and a half years in the traditional technique of sight-size in Florence. This technique teaches a new way to “see” and to paint from life to the scale of life.

The most brilliant workshop - Harriet was such an inspiring and knowledgeable teacher and made the whole experience really enjoyable from start to finish. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn more about oil painting - whether you're a complete beginner or relatively experienced, you will come away feeling like you've learnt a lot and have had a lot of fun along the way. An excellent weekend!
