  • 4/5 from Neha Vanderhyde, attended Sep 2020: Great class very relaxing. The teacher was fantastic and went at a really good pace. Great techniques explained and when to use them. I think the main painting have enough watercolour painting in it. I thought the landscape technique she showed was excellent and that should be one of the paintings we do as well. This class should have two paintings one of these butterflies and the landscape one too.
  • 4/5 from Melisa Johnston, attended Sep 2020: The watercolour butterflies class was a great way to learn so many painting techniques all whilst creating a butterfly piece to keep. Thanks for creating a wonderful space to create with, even in lockdown. ISO Art 2020
  • 3/5 from Estelle Liedemann, attended Sep 2020: It was sometimes hard to follow but the tips on mixing etc was good. My butterflies were rather average and having a second screen or preprinted butterflies would have helped because I struggled to draw the butterfly I needed to paint over. Had fun though and would be great with a group or friends.
  • 5/5 from Michael Brennan, attended Aug 2020: It was great fun and very easy to follow the instructions. I was happy with my end result.
  • 5/5 from Amina Bon, attended Aug 2020: Class was great! Thank you so much! The last time I painted was probably at school which was quite a long time ago. I didn't think I could produce such a beautiful artwork and enjoy watercolour painting so much. I've already recommend Paint For Fun to people I know!
  • 5/5 from Danielle Deppeler, attended Aug 2020: I thoroughly enjoyed my first water colour painting the Hunmingbird. Revi always makes you feel relaxed and she is very knowledgeable
  • 5/5 from Suzanne Vassallo, attended Aug 2020: Great class. As a beginner, I found the instructions easy to follow, and had a fun and relaxing afternoon.
  • 5/5 from Jo Leech, attended Aug 2020: This was a great class with a lovely teacher. I couldn't think of a better way to spend a Sunday afternoon in isolation with my friends and kids all together online.
  • 5/5 from Angela Lean, attended Aug 2020: My first paint for fun class. Our teacher Revi was fantastic, easy to follow class. I ordered a kit which arrived very quickly to my door. My only feedback on the kit was that the paper was a little small for the frame supplied but the purchase of a mat will fix that. Enjoyed the watercolour hummingbird so much I have booked in for the autumn leaves class. Thank you for a relaxing afternoon
