Makings and MusingsReviews 

I love taking Irene's courses! Her classes are gentle and relaxing - and we always end up with charming images. She gives permission to let ourselves go and create playfully! I love it, and i love my pictures - i look forward to creating more wobbly houses!

Kind and knowledgeable instructor. This course was tons of fun and I learned a lot along the way.

The atmosphere was incredibly laid-back and uplifting. As an artist, I experienced a sense of support and motivation to try out different techniques and hone my abilities, all while having the freedom to express myself with the materials. By the end, I was feeling wonderfully relaxed, which was an unexpected perk! I'm eagerly looking forward to returning.

The lesson was extremely therapeutic for me.
The teacher was very pleasant and the lesson was conducted in a very relaxed way, and she made it feel like a comfortable and fluid activity.

There were not rigid instructions per say, but there were a couple of stages that the painting was done. I did get a bit engrossed with my own painting and lost track of what the teacher had moved on to next, as there were not many specific cues during stages of the painting.

Unfortunately, I did find that the mic quality could definitely use some improvement as the voice was very faint, and I did struggle on many occasions to hear the teachers guidance clearly and found I had to rely on the visual recording to see what she was doing to follow along.

All in all, I found it a very pleasant and satisfying lesson and I definitely look forward to taking more lessons with her in future.

The class is so chill! We can learn, have fun and try something new!

Irene is always super helpful with my queries! She helped me adjust my settings on my laptop to enable me to watch the tutorials. Her tutorials are always easy to follow and fun to do. You end up with something you can be proud of.

I just finished Irene's Wobbly Fantasy Houses course. It is well organized - easy to follow, quick to watch, lots of ideas (with more ideas to download), and just plain fun. I love the creative, playful style of this art course. Highly recommend.

Welcoming host
Encouraging
Supportive
Good space for the class

We had an amazing evening class, experimenting with painting spring flowers using mixed media like watercolours, oil pastel, colored pencils...the atmosphere was very welcoming and Irene provided enough guidance and inspiration to get us started but also left everyone enough freedom to just try out different things. Time just flew by and we would happily go back for another class.

Very nice, materials provided and a nice space to work in, the instructor was very kind and approachable

I enjoyed learning about female artists this month! I liked the focus on Vanessa Bell. It’s always fun to explore a variety Art media with Irene. This is the second piece I’ve done with oil pastels under her guidance. Great experience, great company!

This was such a relaxed and positive vibe. I felt supported as an artist, encouraged to explore new techniques and develop skills, whilst also free to use the materials in my own style too. I also felt really chilled by the end of it, which was a nice little bonus! I’m super excited to come again.

always enjoy the tutorials and classes from her. Easy to follow and I enjoy the process!

Enjoyed the free flow of the floral pastels class

Always learn a lot and enjoy the other the 'group' that takes Irene's classes.

I am loving the watercolour class. I am not and have never been artistic. I am improving each week with the gentle, warm guidance of Irene. There is no judgement in the class which makes the experience even better. It is a warm, supportive and encouraging environment with lovely woman.

A great class that was broken down into very helpful tips on how to draw a person using these tips and techniques. This is something I will use going forward as I practice drawing people.

Really fun experience and learned a lot from one session!

Thought I would give it a go will definitely go again
