Testimonials

Below are a few testimonials from our guests for 2011

Apologies for being late in thanking you both for a wonderful week ! Nothing was too much trouble and the tuition was amazing ! Are there any places left for October - I so much want to come again ? I am trying to persuade my husband. Your news update was excellent. We are going to the Mall galleries on Wednesday to the opening of the portrait exhibition to hopefully see Andy again. Many many thanks once again. It changed my life ! Joan

Not only was the art tutoring more than I had hoped for, but the holiday atmosphere was a true bonus. Got home feeling I'd learnt a lot and had a great holiday as well! Already booked to come back in 2012 ! Can't wait to see you again. My non painting partner was so spoilt with the food, wine and tours he's champing at the bit to get back. C U next year. Love Natasha

I so enjoyed my week with you in every way. The food was YUMMY, the company good fun, and of course the tuition was excellent ( I have even been painting at home - never been known before!) A very big thank you to you both - I shall definitely look back on the week with a huge smile on my face! Joy

Thank you so much for making my holiday such a fantastic experience. I am thrilled with my paintings & can't wait to have them at home! There was a really good ambience & I miss everybody very much. Here's to the next time! Wishing you both a very Happy Easter' Love Gilly xx

Hi All, Dogs included in this one of course. Excellent photos! We all look very happy and relaxed in the group, a good reflection on how everyone was feeling I think. Thank you for a truly wonderful experience, I feel inspired and must continue to improve on my art and just keep at it so I can put all the tips given to us into my work. Well I can always try can’t I! Do hope we can meet again, thank you for all your hard work Sara and David. I am sure all the other courses are successful. Give a big kiss from me to all your lovely dogs - missing Italy - House - painting - umm I think I am on the next flight out. I wish ! Love Sue xxx

Marvelous, magical location, and superb generosity of spirit from Sara and David. Great tuition which presented a great new challenge every day. This well and truly took me out of my art comfort zone. Excellent painting locations, and two first class outings. All of these points made Arte Umbria stand out from other art holidays I have been on, and made it a memorable occasion. I was really blown away by the care and attention I received’. Clive

Paradise and painting too. June
