Julianna B. (April 2024)
I took intro to water colours class here with Elise. It was enjoyable; Elise was a great teacher for beginners and covered off all the basics. I left the class feeling confident to try out my new skills at home. Would definitely recommend for anyone interested in getting started with water colours or just trying something new!
