Venue information here
Suzy teaches weekly painting classes and workshops in Devon.
She also teaches one day workshops in London for the Royal Watercolour Society.
Weekly classes are on Tuesday and Friday mornings at Arthouse South Brent. These run in half term blocks and are suitable for adults of all levels of ability.
Each term has an optional theme. Beginners may be given a separate scheme of work as required. The first session involves warm up exercises to generate new ideas and build confidence. After that, teaching happens through weekly 1:1 tutorials and peer support.
Arthouse has fully equipped art studios and is accessible with no steps. There is a small car park for attendees. You will need to bring your own materials although there are some to borrow at the first session where you can discuss what to buy.

Whats App group
There is a Whats app group open to all previous students and those currently attending classes. The purpose of this is that if you can’t make a weekly session you can sell it to someone who can’t attend regularly. Please contact Suzy if you wish to be added to the group in order to pick up the occasional class if you can’t attend regularly.
