"My daughter and I had an absolutely brilliant day. We learnt so much from Diana who gave clear instructions and help throughout the day. The studio is lovely to work in and set in a beautiful location. We both came away with characterful finished hares. The day far exceeded our expectations and was so enjoyable. Would highly recommend this workshop! Thank you Diana!"

"I have highly recommend this clay day with Di. It was my first time with clay and it was really relaxing and fun. I learnt so much and made some great things including 2 very funny grotesque plant pot holders. I am looking forward to seeing the glazed and fired. I have done other workshops with Di so I know she is a very good teacher. She works to your pace so you never feel rushed or stressed. You can take away as much or as little as you want from this day. K."

Art on the Edge responded:

"Glad you have a fun day. We did make some wonderful grotesques !! Di"

Susan reviewed: Giacometti style bronzed animal sculpture one day workshop Suffolk one-to-one or max 4 students

"I dragged my husband along to this course, " I am not artistic, it will be a waste of money".Guess what, he loved it. He came home with a fantastic running hare, and a beam from ear to ear. I came home with a lovely meercat. Thank you Di, a great day out. Susan PS At long last we can get to family in Australia, where we hope to impress others with our sculpturing."

Art on the Edge responded:

"Hi Susan, How is that fabbo Meercat lol? Thank you so much for the lovely review. It was a very enjoyable day for me and I loved creating a new animal. Hope you get to Australia soon. Di"

Steve reviewed: Bronzed Giacometti style figurative sculpture one day workshop one-to-one

"I was given a "Giacometti-style" sculpture making course as a present and I have to say that it was fantastic! Di was great fun to chat with whilst she taught me how to make the sculpture. Di was very open to ideas on what I could make and helped me think through what was feasible in a day! I am really pleased with the final piece that I created and and really liked Di's approach - as she guided me on how to do each step but didn't do the steps for me. She used a different sculpture to demonstrate the technique in a series of easy-to-follow steps and it worked really well. Di also did a great job of keeping my progress on track so that I had a finished product at the end of the session - and did this is a very relaxed way, helped along with coffee and biscuits!"

Art on the Edge responded:

"Thanks Steve. I really enjoyed meeting you and helping to create your Minotaur!!! Hope he's in pride of place."

Michelle Denny reviewed: Giacometti style bronzed animal sculpture one day workshop Suffolk one-to-one or max 4 students

"I had the BEST time on my sculpture course. Not feeling I was particularly creative, Di patiently proved that I actually was and I came away with a lovely piece of work in the shape of our sausage dog for my husband's Christmas present (who was as amazed as I was!). Lovely setting, lovely relaxing day and best of all, lovely Di .. highly recommended and I'm planning on a second visit with my daughter soon. Thank you!"

Art on the Edge responded:

"Oh thanks Michelle ;0) I so enjoyed meeting you and it was fun chatting and meeting Dan in real life too. x"

Bianca reviewed: Giacometti style bronzed animal sculpture one day workshop Suffolk one-to-one or max 4 students

"I consider myself a beginner when it comes to art and Di was so helpful and patient when taking me through this course. The space is beautiful and really relaxing, it made focusing and getting lost in the creative process really effortless. Di is friendly, incredibly creative and so knowledgeable - it was such a cathartic and fun process to create a hare sculpture with her. I'd really recommend booking a class with her - either as a 121 like I did, or as a group - because she can really hold space, is warm, fun, friendly and makes the whole process totally enjoyable. Thanks Di! :)"

Art on the Edge responded:

"Thank you so much !!!"
