“Nancy has presented a week that was exciting and inspiring! Her knowledge of watercolour techniques and colour and composition was excellent but her ability to share and teach made the learning a joy. I now understand things I’ve struggle with for years. Nancy is a genuine understanding person and made everyone comfortable at their individual level. Thank you. “
