Dear Friends,

I hope you are well.

I would like to wish you Merry Christmas and Happy and Healthy New Year! May New Year  bring you lots of inspiration and creative ideas for your Art and Craft projects!

I  would like to say huge THANK YOU to all my students who supported me this year. I would not be where I am without you.

It has not been an easy year, however,  it has been a  successful year with many great Art and Craft projects, an exhibition of students’ work and new Art courses.  Many of you made a  great progress this year and created fantastic Art work!   Well done!

I am very pleased that at the end of this year we finally managed to launch a new website with focus on Art Classes. The website still needs some adjustments  but at least the main design is finished.
You are welcome to  have a look at it and tell us what you think.

Next year I will continue working with Broadway Tower barn in Cotswolds and also will offer some wool painting workshops at Talton Mill in Stratford-upon-Avon.  Please find  information about the workshops I will teach there in this Newsletter. The events at above venues will include homemade lunch and would make a great gift for someone special or a lovely treat for yourself !

I have included the timetable for courses and workshops in March and April 2020 in this Newsletter too. If you wish to see the full Timetable of workshops and courses  please click here.   

I am also happy to announce that I will continue teaching the Fundamental Art Skills course and Watercolour course next year! I have had a lot of positive feedback about those courses and will continue developing them further to suit your needs and requirements! 

Thank you so much again for your great work, co-operation and help this year!

Have a great 2020!

Best wishes

Yours
