This workshop is a relaxing workshop designed to explore both water colour and posca acrylic paint pens in a calm and contemplative way.

 

The symbolism of the mountain is interpreted in many different ways throughout the world.

Mountains are often described metaphorically in relation to life "It's not the mountain we conquer but ourselves" (Sir Edmund Hillary)

Emma is a fantastic teacher, and this is evident in the resultant artwork that comes home from her classes. We thank you Emma for helping our daughter develop her artistic flair – she just loves coming along each week.”
