This was Sandra's sixth time doing this class



This was my 6th class with Natasha and as always a fantastic experience. Natasha is such a great teacher - I am always amazed at how with a couple of strokes she can transform a painting that wasn’t working. I’m learning how to push more complex works past the “ugly” phase. This time I finished a large piece I started last class and very happy with the result. I will be back for class 7 for sure. My two friends had a great time too and produced beautiful works. The studio space is gorgeous too.

This was Trinh's second time doing this class



Booked the class again because Natasha is such a lovely teacher. Natasha challenged me and gave us lots of good tips to help get the colour and tone. I was able to feel more confident from the last session. Note that Natasha gets straight into the deep-end with painting which can be surprising as a first timer -but regardless provides a gentle working environment to hone in your skills and learning.

This is my 5th class with Natasha - again just wonderful. This time I took at larger piece I started with her about 2 months ago. I was stuck with where to go next and she had such brilliant suggestions and tips. I am super happy with the result. I love how I have been able to progress with her support. Will do another class for sure - maybe I'll try a bird next time

Natasha is a wonderful teacher. She is very patient, informative, hands on and kind. She took the time with each of us in the class, to guide us intentionally through each part of the class to make sure we felt confident in our work and had something finished before we left the workshop. Highly recommend!

Best 5 hours spent in a long time. Natasha is a knowledgable and great teacher. I enjoyed the relaxed nature of the class. I am a bit rusty with my painting skills, so was surprised how well the artwork looked. I will be back for sure.

Great class.
Natasha is a great teacher.
She guides each student through each step of the process of making the still life painting.
Everyone in our class left with a great little painting and motivated to keep painting with oil paints.
The venue is perfect for this intimate class.
Everyone got great advice and feedback from Natasha.
Materials provided and plenty of time to create a finished painting.
Thank you Natasha.

This was an amazing class! Natasha is an amazing teacher and I would definitely book a private lesson again

Anne Cleary • Aug 2025



What a great day! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this class. Natasha is an excellent teacher, and person, and I learnt so much about oil painting. Something I've avoided because of all the cleaning up drama. Now I know it's as easy as using acrylic paints but with all the richness of oils.
One question Natasha - once my painting is dry, should I varnish it or leave well alone?
Thanks again for a wonderful day, and I will be back.
Anne

Marina Maier • Aug 2025



Natasha is a very encouraging, skilled and knowledgeable teacher. It is amazing to learn and see what you can achieve in 6 hours with her guidance and help. There were different still life objects we could choose to paint and it was a perfect step by step process using non-toxic oil paint.
Would anyone recommend who wants to a full painting experience that you can leverage on at home.

Oh Wei Qi • Aug 2025



I had such a great time at my private 1-1 class with her. Coming as someone who draws a lot, I did a lot of pencils and acrylic but not oil painting. She taught me all the things I’ve always been wondering about. We started off with compositions, then moved on the priming under painting, grisaille method, then painting with colours. I received techniques, steps and patience I really needed to know and was looking forward to learn. I went from 0 knowledge to feeling confident on my own with oil painting. I highly recommend private class to anyone who wants a dedicated focus on their art work

This was Michael's second time doing this class



Today in my second class with Natasha, I faced a challenging (for me) still life subject for oil painting. Drawing on her expert knowledge and skills, Natasha guided me with patience and kind encouragement. By the end of the class I had developed a painting I never thought I could produce. There were three of us in the class and Natasha created a warm and relaxed atmosphere where we all became instant friends, had great fun, and finished with a real sense of achievement. We were all very happy with our efforts. I cannot recommend Natasha’s classes highly enough and will be attending again as soon as I can.

Joy Wright • Jan 2025



Loved this class. Small and personal, Natasha calmly taught and assisted us in out work. Great assistance was provided and we call came away with beautifyl paintings. Everything you needed to do the painting was included.

It was a perfect day. Natasha was a brilliant teacher, and with only a few of us there I felt spoiled with attention and supervision. I am new to acrylic painting but now inspired to continue. I would seek out any class with Natasha if I lived in Sydney.
Thank you so much
