Join artist Susan Thumm from Texas for an inspiring three-day workshop. The school offers a rare opportunity to learn Susan's signature techniques and personal style - from brushwork and layering to mastering fine details that bring porcelain to life using a vibrant colour palette. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced artist, you'll leave with new skills, fresh inspiration and your own beautifully painted pieces. Don't miss this chance to learn from a true master of the craft while having fun!
