"I want to say how much I enjoyed your contemporary enamelling course it was definitely one of - if not the best Jewellery courses that I have attended over the last couple of years. My expectations going into the course were mixed given that I had tried and failed to get torch fired enamelling to work for me in the past. By the end of the three day and under your guidance, I had managed not only to produce some good examples of simple enamelling, but had managed to create a Cloisonne piece and also a simple example of Plique-a-Jour.  I will certainly be incorporating these new found skills into my jewellery pieces going forward. The basic introduction to engraving that you provided will also find its way into my work going forward - although a lot more practice required with my new gravers. 
Excellent course and excellent studio/working environment......Now to purchase that Kiln……."
