SHORT COURSES 2020
You will already know about my courses for 2020 and many are very nearly full if not already full. Here they all are again and do put your name on waiting lists as you never know when a space may become available.
Ongoing courses are mentioned at the end of the newsletter and both of my drawing courses do have spaces. So if you are thinking of treating yourself to a Christmas present, look no further.
Happy reading.
