The perfect way to spend an afternoon! Joanna is a fun, patient, and outgoing artist who brings energy and charisma to the class. She is a great teacher, offering suggestions and guidance as needed/wanted, while letting the participants play and experiment. Her space is beautiful and clean. Cannot recommend this enough.

We had a fantastic experience. So encouraging of beginning watercolor painters. My 13 year old granddaughter chose this event and said it was the best thing we did on our 10 day trip to Norway.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you, Beth! This makes me so happy! Hope you had a memorable trip and that you'll continue to paint with your granddauther.

Wonderful experience!

I enjoyed this so much. Joan was a wonderful teacher, so kind and encouraging. I learned a lot and feel inspired to paint when I return home. I highly recommend it!

Joanna was super amazing even before the class, my flight was delayed meaning I was going to miss my booking. Joanna allowed me to reschedule so I could still attend. The session itself was so much fun. Joanna is such a friendly and vibrant person, she makes you feel so welcome. We did some practise techniques before moving on to our main piece. Joanna explains equipment and techniques in an easy to understand way and you soon feel comfortable to unleash your inner artist. I could have stayed all day! If I had been in Bergen longer I would have come back for another session!

Recommended!

Was visiting Bergen for a few days and found this workshop, wonderful instructor - highly recommend!

Very fun evening!

What an enjoyable evening! Joan was a delight, and even though I am certainly no artist, she was so helpful in helping me create a decent painting of a Norwegian landscape. Highly recommend. Something different from the usual sightseeing.

What a fun evening. 🎨🖌️ Many laughs , lots of learning the different techniques , trying them out and finally creating a "unique" piece to remember our time . Joanne was always on hand to help , suggest and potentially direct throughout the whole time. Encouragement to go our own way and develop our pictures. All in all a great evening. Thank you.
