I thoroughly enjoyed the Watercolour Reef at Eckersley’s Castle Hill. Our teacher CJ was awesome. He was very organised, so helpful and patient as he went through with us on each step from start to finish of the project. The materials provided in the class are of very good quality as well. All in all its good value for money. I would definitely be coming back to attend watercolour workshops in this venue again in the future.

Awesome class to learn about the fundamentals of mini painting. CJ was awesome!
Would love to do this again with more advanced techniques or different miniatures.

Kirin Geeve Apr 2024


CJ our instructor was amazing, he taught such great techniques in such a calm and gentle manner and taught me that mistakes in art are all part of the process.
It was the most amazing value for money everything was provided and the class went for 3 hours.

Thanks to CJ - he is very helpful, giving great tips on watercolour painting and the use of products. He has golden tidbits of information. He is entertaining and encourage us that our work is great and unique. Great location. Great products used.

Such a wonderful, brightly coloured water colour lesson. The reef came to life with Windsor and Newton and a very patient and enthusiastic teacher C.J from Castle Towers Eckersley’s. We learned so much, enjoyed trying out new products such as the colourless masking fluid, which is so much fun, as well as the brilliant quality paints in brilliant colours and brush markers. Thank you for such a rewarding class, we really appreciate your time and expertise.

More time should be allocated to this class. If you are slower than others in the group you get left behind. Too much information in one instruction left people continually asking it to be repeated or clarified. I felt extremely rushed and flustered therefore I didn’t enjoy the experience. Being creative is meant to be pleasurable.

The available equipment was very entertaining and fun to play withI just wish it lasted longer!

Knowledgeable teacher who developed great rapport with everyone; the lesson was well-presented in clear, well-paced stages. Materials were well-prepared to assist student success. A fun lesson, too!

Watercolour Turtle Workshop review by Janice Ford - Sydney

Debra Widdicombe Jul 2023


The teacher was friendly and helpful.
The venue was clean and well prepared.
The materials were of a high quality.
It was quite expensive but a great experience otherwise.
What I learnt most was the application of colours and layering.
What I liked most was having a full class and everyone working together.

CJ was friendly and informative. The class area was well set up and I liked the materials provided and the class was good value for money. I learnt a lot about marble pouring.

Suzie Logan Feb 2023


Wonderful class. CJ was an effervescent and knowledgeable teacher. Skills learnt were valuable. All materials needed were provided for the class with an option to purchase at the end if you wished to continue drawing at your own pace at home. Very happy with end result. Thank you CJ.

Liz Hadenfeld Jan 2023


For the most part I tend to avoid art classes because they're always catered towards beginners. That wasn't the case this time round and the really enjoyed the chance to learn something new and build upon my current skills.
Definitely worth coming again. The instructor was really knowledgeable and was very quick to answer questions and help people

Great instructions.
Friendly helpful teacher.
Encouragement wonderful.
Good products.
Very relaxed.
Well done all.
Thanks.

Genevieve Young Jan 2023


A wonderful class where I learned things I didn't know existed haha. The only downfall was that it was over too quickly. I would happily have spent a few more dollars for a longer class and hence the chance to complete my work.

Lynette Jones Jan 2023


Great teacher great ideas very encouraging discussed new ideas and gave ideas about different resources xxx

Grace McGree Jan 2023


The teacher was nice and funny and I had a lot of fun. The only issue was there was not a lot of variety of paint colours. But otherwise it was a good experience.

Sindy Gorissen Jan 2023


Lovely & enthusiastic teacher. Thank you C.J! Both kids enjoyed the project immensely. The venue was bright and well prepared with a generous supply of art materials.
