    I watched the show, the trick with the masking tape was made to look easier than using a pencil. I'd love to hang one of those besutiful pictures on my wall. I love mountains too and this art work is superb!

    I was hooked from the first minute. Matthew really brings water colour painting to those of us who have never really grasped the technique. Having pupils in the studio is just brilliant. The third picture looks so like a photo taken by my father more than 50 years ago of a local country road. It really took me right back to my childhood. Needless to say, I fell for the kit and can't wait for it to arrive and start playing. xx Maggie

    Matthew is a fantastic teacher. I bought his products before I came here and it was only after seeing his show this week that I remembered that I had all his paints and DVD's etc. I was gobsmaked at how it turned out, I am over the moon with my picture and I really never thought I could paint a picture to be proud of. I highly recommend his collection to anyone terrified of giving it a go. Wonderful to have the opportunity to have a piece of his artwork, Fingers crossed.

    Brilliant shows. I even had a go with some old watercolours I had already. I managed to produce something I actually quite liked following Matthew's tuition. Would be easier with Matthew's paints though. Hope he comes back soon.

    It was wonderful to watch Matthew on his shows - thank you for showing a different picture on every show as it gave an insight of what can be created. I have purchased the One Day Special for a teenager who was captivated and thought this might help towards their art at school. Would obviously love an original for inspiration. Hope we get to see more shows like this

How to Make a Glittery Star Using the Vivi Gade Paper Star Strips

We're thrilled to welcome Lotte  Littau, the co-founder and co-owner of Creativ Company to Hochanda this week. She's travelled all the way from Denmark to bring you incredible shows across three days, showcasing the Christmas paper range from Creativ Company. Lotte will be bringing you lots of demonstrations throughout her shows on how you can use all of these beautiful papers to create a Scandi Christmas this year. Here's just one of the projects Lotte will be showing this week...  Step 1. Half two 2.5cm wide paper star strips. Now only use three of the four paper star strips. Step 2.
