I had the privilege of being in Hetties' art class in Perth. It was the highlight of my week, not only was I improving my drawing skills it was like meeting up with friends each week. I was able to produce work that I didn't think I could ever do, under her guidance. Hettie introduced me to drawing with coloured pencils which has become my favourite medium. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone wanting to learn, to think about your subject, to look at things differently, and be excited about what you will be doing each lesson.

It is nice to hear from you Hettie and how lucky people will be to have you as their new art teacher. You taught us how to hold the pencil in a certain way which helped to create a more sensitive composition.

The classes were always friendly and informal and professional. The way to simplify a composition was a very important area which you (Hettie) explained well. Various mediums were also used such as charcoal, inks and coloured pencils.

The subject each week was very interesting and I would recommend Hettie as an art teacher to both beginners and advanced students. 

I recently had the pleasure of attending one of Hettie's portrait workshops in pastel. Over the two days Hettie guided us through the stages of drawing, building up layers and creating a realistic likeness. Each participant was given valuable and constructive feedback and I learned so much! Thank you Hettie, I look forward to attending more workshops in the future.
