2. Do you teach art to absolute beginners?
   Yes, I love teaching beginners, bring an open mind and plenty of enthusiasm and you will be surprise of how much there is to learn and how miuch fun it is...
   
   
3. Do you take classes at night or on the weekends?
   No, the classes are only on Tuesday and Wednsesday mornings, from 9.30am to 1pm - we have a coffee/tea break inbetween.
   I am a professional Artist and paint on most the remaining days.
   
   
4. Do you teach only your own style?
   No, not as a rule, unless you like one of my paintings and would like to achieve something similar.
   I draw and paint in different styles and mediums myself, and I teach art as such, rather than one style only.
   My aim is to support you to find art and creativity in yourself and discover your own style.
   
   
5. Do you also teach drawing?
   Yes, definitely, indeed, I encourage everyone to start with drawing, even if you come to learn watercolour or acrylic.
   Drawing will teach you to see the world with different eyes. Most techniques can be explained through drawing, the list is endless from texture to perspective, from values to negative and positive space, drawing has it all. Most students love the drawing classes and always come back for more.
   Drawings can be very impressive to show techniques and skill, and also give you the flexibility to explore creativity in it's deepest, before you transform something in colour...
   PS. I guess you noticed, I like drawing...
   
   
6. Is it right, your classes are only $30.00 for 3 1/2 hours, and you even serve real coffee?

   and may I add, no extra cost involved, pay as you go, nothing up-front...
