This month (quite incredibly) marks our second year of producing ‘online’ botanical coloured pencil drawing courses with the lovely Linda Hampson drawing and nattering away to you and me editing the videos with factual (and some less factual!) interludes. I wish it had not taken a pandemic to give us the nudge to venture into video, but it has been a positive achievement.
We have built a library of over 50 online botanical and natural history coloured pencil drawing tutorials, ranging from complete beginners courses and bundles, to e-cards and completely free trial courses.
The enjoyment that our tutorials have brought people is what has inspired us to keep going, we have come a long way in our production skills and it is only because of the support and encouragement we have received from our wonderful online students all over the world.
In turn we are able to give people the confidence and courage to try something new and that they are over the moon with what they can do with a little help.
As we enter our third year of making courses for you to enjoy at home, at your leisure, we wanted to share some of the marvellous results from our online courses that students from all over the globe have shared with us over the last two years. Here are a small selection from our beginners & spring courses so far this year, inspired by Lindas online tutorials, created by our wonderful students. I think you will agree they are pretty impressive!
Thank you to all who enjoy our online tutorials for your ongoing support 💕
If you haven’t tried one yet, why not try a free RED ROSEBUD taster course
