This was such a lovely and bespoke experience. I didn't think that I would get that much insight and knowledge from a 2-hour session, but I was mistaken. It was perfectly paced, and I left inspired to keep painting.

This was an amazing class! There were only 2 of us but the time absolutely flew by. Gordon is a fantastic teacher. He took the time to explain everything and was incredibly patient. We learned the basics of oil paints and made great progress with our paintings. We now feel confident continuing our paintings at home and we’ve definitely been inspired to keep painting!

I had such a wonderful experience in Gordon’s oil painting class! Gordon is a talented artist and the environment he created is warm and encouraging where I felt comfortable asking questions and experimenting with new techniques. His tips were practical, insightful, and made a real difference. I left the class feeling inspired and more confident in my skills. Highly recommend this class to anyone looking to improve their painting technique.

I went to Gordon's class because I wanted to experience painting with oils rather than acrylics. He listened to where I was coming from and tailor made the session for me. He taught the principals of painting a landscape based on one of my photographs. He made helpful observations about the psychological aspects that will help me progress. He answered my many questions, and encouraged me to continue. A very informative session, thank you
