Mentoring in Drawing and/or Watercolour | Kerry Daley

Bienarté is now offering new evening mentoring sessions with Kerry Daley, designed for artists with a basic understanding of either drawing or watercolour who would like to further develop their skills and build confidence in a friendly and supportive environment.

These sessions provide the flexibility to work on your own artistic goals while receiving personalised guidance, feedback and encouragement from an experienced tutor.
