Kelvin Williams reviewed: Portraiture Drawing

"Arrived apprehensively as I've never been on a drawing course before - so I was very relieved at the warm welcome and good company (and good food). I was not a complete beginner but looking for tips to improve. Course delivered in spades. Highly recommend."

Hawkwood CFT responded:

"Thank you, Kelvin - we're delighted that you enjoyed your first experience of Hawkwood; we always aim to do our best with both our courses and our hospitality! We'll look forward to welcoming you back. Cathy"

Julie reviewed: Foraging: Eating Wild

"This was a really interesting course and a lovely way to spend the day, with other interested people. Jos was knowledgeable and engaging, happy to answer questions - he met the needs of everyone, new to foraging or those with a background knowledge. It was especially good to combine this with the preparation on the harvest, and to have some to take home."

Hawkwood CFT responded:

"Thank you so much for your lovely review; we are thrilled that you enjoyed the day so much - Jos is an excellent tutor and Hawkwood is a perfect place for the course. I hope you will join us again for other courses in the future - we look forward to welcoming you back!"
