Carley, this is fantastic. I plan to blog about my experience of the Flora Bowley course as well as I’m also on the same journey right now. I love your work, the way it flows and the definition and the colour. Wonderful!

Thanks for taking the time to check out my blog. I have been really impressed with everyone’s work, and the group is so supportive. I want to get into more of Flora’s extra exercises though with the sketchbooks. I have been too enthralled with the painting part so far.
