Testimonials

“Claire is very knowledgeable and very generous with us as students by sharing her experience and knowledge. Each session I learnt a lot and went away with more things to think about for my own story. Claire spends time discussing students’ questions, which is very helpful.”

“I like the fact that Claire includes things like using shadows, colour theory etc. As I didn’t go to art college, I find it useful having these kind of things as part of the course.”

“Claire’s great teaching, generous sharing of knowledge – this was truly a fantastic experience!”

 

I teach this course at the Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration, please check their website for course dates and bookings.
