- Patricia de Spéville·
Very happy. Painting today. I’m learning and will practice further.
Thanks Julia. - Niki Stuart·
My daughter just joined and she’s absolutely hooked! She loves the creative, hands on fun, and in a world full of digital distractions, Pottery with Julia and her team is such a refreshing and meaningful alternative.
- Peter Hough·
Julia’s knowledge of pottery, ceramics and glazing is amazing. How she turns a slab of clay into fine art, something practical or both is stunning. I particularly loved the dolphin and the gecko and her helpful, patient guidance.
- Casey·
