Student Quotes

“Loved it! I was a bit apprehensive.  Cubism isn’t what I’d call my cup of tea, but the references were really interesting and the way the task was set really helped me to let loose.  Learnt more about the origins and inspiration for Cubism – very interesting and helped build my own interpretation – realised there’s much more skill and depth to it.” Vanessa S
“Motivational, Exciting.  I learnt to understand why Cubism’s ideas allow us to play with [traditional] perspective.” David F
“Fun, relaxing.  It’s a unique experience that frees your mind and lets you express yourself.” Laura F
“Incredibly insightful experience.  Quality teaching and encouraging advice.   I learned a lot and expressed myself.  Thank you.”  I learnt about the “background info on the artist and what techniques he used.  The movement dates and periods and how to make dominant shapes and let loose.  I would recommend the workshop as it gave me an “insightful learning of techniques and understanding of artist and just because its fun.”  My course highlight was “it was all a highlight… thank you Brian.” Kiana M
