Impossible??... Well try us

This is what people have had to say about the course...

Mark - A pleasure to teach! 

“I enjoyed the course thoroughly, patient instruction and a friendly atmosphere helped me to absorb a huge amount. I would definitely recommend. I look forward to future courses” - Mark, Yorkshire

A Reet Grand Bloke

 

“At the outset I thought the project may be a little over whelming but I’m happy to say I have an example of work which I am very pleased with. Derek’s teaching skills were excellent and I feel I have now learnt new skills which would have been a lot further down the road of learning”. - Stuart, Cheshire

You were a little Tinker

 

"Having never touched an airbrush I wasn't sure I would be able to keep up; But Derek explained everything beforehand, we even stripped the things down to understand how they worked before we sprayed. Although it was pretty intense I still enjoyed the course tremendously". - Karen, County Durham

 

See! you could do it!

"I struggled at control of the airbrush which can only be improved by my practice, but I was always encouraged and urged on to my goal with patience and understanding. If not treat so expertly and with empathy, I could have easily become disconcerted. I'm so glad I continued and achieved the end product which I would be happy to show off. I learnt new skills and how to apply them successfully which I couldn't ask for more out of the course" - Janet, Cheshire 

 

Brian Happy...

 

"It's always good to meet nice people who know how to teach but keep it fun as well. They know it's a hard course but still make time to help you relax. Good course Excellent Teacher - Keep going guys" - Brian, Hampshire

Ian Don't Mess wiv Me!

 

"All I have to say is... If Carlsberg were to put airbrush courses on, then they would be like this! on a serious note it was fantastic, absolutley knackering both mentally and physically!!

My wife couldn't believe the results from a 2 day course. I can't wait to do your true fire course" - Ian, Tyne & Wear

 

Jack the Dude

 

"The course is well worth doing if you fancy airbrushing. It was inspirational - I learned more in two days of Dels' tuition than I did spending 4 years doing art and design at GCSE level. It was absolutely brilliant!!" - Jack, Midlands

 

Tracii

 

 

 

Richard

 

 

"All I have to say is... The Dogs Bollocks!" Richard, Lancashire 

 

Ian

 

 

"I learnt far more than I expected to in 2 days, and now feel confident enough to move my artwork to the next level" Ian, Yorkshire

 

Chris

 

"It was a very satisfying course, Del builds on all aspects of airbrushing any questions were answered immediately - excellent!, Sharrons' food and coffee was spot on. I thoroughly enjoyed it" - Chris, Yorkshire

 

Jim

 

 

"The course is enjoyable and fun, making friends on the course. Sharron and Del seem to accept you into their family and circle of friends. It does not stop there, experienced advice is available after the course" - Jim, Lancashire.

Tom

 

"Thanks to Del, Sharron & family they made me feel more than welcome and filled me with food and knowledge to start my airbrushing career, cheers guys. See you on the next course, cheers Tom" - Tom, Berkshire.

Marcus

 

 

"This course has been fantastic and inspiring I came without ever touching an airbrush and left with a canvass of work that I am proud of. I recommend it to any one interested in airbrushing - no matter how skilled at art you are, because I can guarantee Del will sort you out!" - Marcus, Durham.

 

Andy

"The beginner’s boot camp is a two day course.  The course tutor is Derek who is extremely patient and along with his wife Sharon (who kept us all well fed and topped up with teas and coffees) we were all made to feel very welcome.

There were four of us on the course, all recreating a picture, but in our own individual style.  Even though all four pictures were based on one picture they all looked very different, but with Derek’s guidance and tuition I would have been proud to say anyone of them was mine.

In short what I learned on the course was invaluable.  Derek and Sharon were great hosts.  Derek was a great tutor.  This course was extremely good value for money" Andy, Kent

 

 

Because the course is so intense there are a maximum of 4 people per course, this guarantees you appropriate time with your tutor so you all develop at the same level in the same time.

The cost of this course is an amazing £299.00 and everything is provided - equipment, paint, lunch and refreshments… even course notes!! So if you'd like to find out more give Sharron a call on 01833 628 066.
