Stanwick Lakes Art and Craft Courses reviews

Jane Powell reviewed: Monthly Pottery Classes

"We had a great time at this pottery course. There was a mixture of people like us who hadn’t done it before and others who were more experienced. Louise made the projects accessible for us newbies by providing guidance and support at key moments, whilst also providing sufficient challenge for the others. Thank you! "

Jayson Winters reviewed: Introduction to Traditional Leaded Stained-Glass Course, 2 days

"Very enjoyable, informative and well structured course. Our tutor was highly knowledgeable and supportive in helping us learn and understand whilst completing our course pieces. For people who don't know (I didn't), it might be worth including in the course write up that 'traditional stained glass' is lead-based ie. not copper foil-based."

Belinda Collingwood reviewed: Mixed Media Painting Workshop

"I always enjoy coming to Stanwick for an art morning - I think this was my least favourite of the ones I’ve done and that’s because I didn’t love the still life theme and also needed more structure and demo - and I didn’t love my result this time - perhaps I’ve been spoilt before - I’ll be back though "

SJW reviewed: Glass Fusion Abstract Christmas Tree & Snowflakes Decoration Workshop

"Great thing to do at Christmas time. Fun and absorbing, Lots of choices of glass to choose from. Each work-station had everything we needed to do the task. Tutor on hand to ask questions if needed. We made fused glass trees and snowflakes, so can’t wait to see how they turn out, once fired. Would recommend! "
