As complete novices to print making, my wife and I had a great time together creating some new artwork for our home. Liz was very patient, knowledgable and engaging and made it very easy for us to try out different techniques and styles to create something we’re really pleased with. We also appreciated the tea and biscuits! We’d definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a fun creative activity and a great way to spend a Sunday morning! Thank you Liz!

I really enjoyed the experience. I was bought it as a gift for Christmas from my wife. I created a great picture, and enjoyed the time there. The lady who was teaching us explained everything clearly. It was great, and I'd recommend it to anyone.

I had such a lovely Sunday morning making the Bristol balloon print! It was very mindful and relaxing in a bright space and the host was really lovely and helpful. I loved mixing the colours and tapping into my creative side, I'll even frame it!! Would 100% recommend.

Quite amazing what we managed to produce in 2 Hrs. I am actually going to frame mine! Great guidance on mixing colours, as having no artistic genes, usually and art work I try (usually with the kids) turns out brown.! Thank you, really enjoyed myself.

Brought tickets to this class for my friend’s birthday and she loved it. The class was really well taught and at a relaxed pace! We were a group of 6 and all produced great prints. Materials were great quality too! Will book again in the future!
