Penelope Torkington reviewed: Watercolour Mastery An Intensive 4 Day Live workshop (2nd-5th Sept)

"Thank you Purnima for your effort to teach, your own style of watercolour technique is light and fresh. It has been a good experience trying to lighten my own style to meet your standards. I will work without the loss of my personal expression of my mind in the brush. I'll try to use less pain and more water. I wish that I might have had your teachings presented to me before I developed my own son of painting. I've purchased several of your cards at the bookstore to remind me of you. Thank you for all your help, Penny. World Cruise Qv 2020"

Art By Purnima responded:

"Well done, Penelope. You already have some basic foundation skills in Watercolour and you have learnt more by attending my course. Hope to see you soon on a new Watercolour journey."
