"My mum and I loved the batik painting course. We did this in Barbara's house and there was a relaxed informal atmosphere. Barbara showed us lots of ideas and helped when needed. She explained the technique clearly and let us experiment. Mum and I loved our finished paintings. It was a really enjoyable, relaxing day and no artistic ability is needed!!"

Faith reviewed: Painting with beeswax & dyes - Batik Pictures

"What a lovely day we had! I did this course with three friends (and two very nice strangers) of varying degrees of artistic experience. Barbara taught us the basics of batik painting and with patience and a keen eye helped us create our own pictures. I hadn’t done any drawing or painting for years, and never had any particular skill, but I’m so proud of my batik painting that I’m going to frame it. Thank you, Barbara! We hope to come again soon."

Feltworld - Creative Arts responded:

"It was a pleasure to teach you all and work with your varied designs. They all looked great and will look fabulous when framed. Looking forward to seeing you on any course in the future 😁. "
