I had a lovely time, Cristina was so helpful and patient. I really appreciated her pre-organised visual aids, and the additional material provided once the class was finished. She also has lots of great tips regarding sourcing materials if you're keen to keep painting on your own, which is super helpful. Thanks for the wonderful class!

Had an amazing time! Cristina is a great teacher, super helpful, patient and informative. She takes you step by step through each illustration - which made it super easy for me as a beginner. Will definitely be booking in for another workshop soon :)

The three-hour watercolour workshop at the Abbotsford Convent was an absolutely wonderful, calming experience that I highly recommend to anyone! The class structure built up my confidence, making it the best creative escape.
Christina was incredibly encouraging, taking the time to guide everyone through each step with great energy. The warm-up exercises made tricky concepts like water control and wet-on-wet blending simple to grasp.No More "Muddy" Colours. We learned techniques for layering soft colours while keeping the artwork looking fresh and vibrant. I loved learning how to paint the vibrant poppy, the intricate textures of the oyster mushroom, and the charming toadstool. The three-hour duration gave us plenty of time to practice our techniques. I left the workshop feeling inspired and proud of the beautiful botanical piece I created. Whether you are a complete beginner or looking to refresh your skills, this class is worth every minute!

I loved this class in the beatiful venue of the Abbotsford convent. Cristina is a generous teacher and provided lots of valuable information about watercolour. It was easy to follow the various tasks and I learned a lot, as well as having a very enjoyable morning. Highly recommended

I am a total novice with zero artistic talent and wanted to broaden my horizons - Cristina was really patient and I actually managed to paint a mushroom worthy of fridge-space

Did this class with my mum and 13 year old daughter. It was fun and accessible. Cristina was methodical in her instruction and generous with her knowledge and materials. Daughter came home and was painting what we learnt at first opportunity :)

The class was much better than I anticipated.
First timing at water colours. Learnt heaps of skills and information regarding products to use/purchase.
Thanks so much for a great class.
I would have enjoyed a smaller class plus I was disappointed in the end that I didn’t get you to review my work and ask how I could have improved it.

Amazing workshop with a fantastic teacher! Christina really knows her stuff when it comes to art & gave us lots of useful advice during the session. Highly recommend to anybody considering trying watercolour painting

Cristina is a fantastic teacher. She explains techniques in a really clear way and makes the class feel approachable for beginners while still being interesting for people who already draw. The practice exercises were especially helpful before starting the final artwork.

Class was great and Cristina is a knowledgeable and patient teacher with years of experience. I leant more about different types of coloured pencils and paper, along with being able to practice using the medum for art work. I gained confidence and have a better understanding of coloured pencil drawing.
