Recent reviews of Landscape Painting with Confidence Short Course
- 5/5 from Peter Engelen, attended Feb 2026: A small group so lots of individual guidance. Mike is an excellent teacher, we learned a step by step process of blocking and building, about tones, colours and brush techniques. No expectations or pressure. Great way to be mindful and creative.
