Attending solo, I sat next to a lovely lady & our teacher Lily demonstrated & guided us through a range of techniques to build confidence with watercolour. I went from saying I can’t even draw stick figures to walking out of class feeling much more confident & proud of my 2 paintings. I’m really happy with what I achieved & I’ll be back again for sure.
