I have attended Sylvias’ art classes up until the pandemic halted everything.
I paint mainly with watercolours but Sylvia is good at encouraging people to try other mediums, which is brilliant as I have learnt to enjoy painting with acrylics as well.
Sylvia usually takes a small number of students at a time in each class, which means that everyone gets help and instruction individually if this is necessary.
I appreciate the informal and relaxed atmosphere of the classes. Students are also able to work at their own pace.
I am nowhere near to being a talented artist, but have learned so much, since my “O” level art days, being taught by Sylvia. I aim to carry on as I enjoy it so much.
I have been encouraged to “have a go”at anything, eg Collages, drawing,
Landscapes, still life and much more. So feel much more confident in anything I attempt now.
