EXCELLENT Based on 10 reviews Posted on Melanie Fallis I’m so glad I signed up for a workshop with Nancy at Atelier123. She made the whole experience so welcoming, effortless and enjoyable. She is a bundle of positivity!Posted on Grace Westcott I had a wonderful experience in my Atelier123 private painting workshop. Nancy's positivity and can-do energy is confidence-inspiring. You know you have excellent advice, guidance and encouragement right at your elbow. That took the intimidation factor right out of what was, in my case, a steepish learning curve. Nancy provides her charming artist studio, the canvas, the paints, the brushes, the painting smock... You bring what you've got, which in my case was plain enthusiasm, coupled with complete innocence of any painting techniques. Had a lovely time! And now I have a pretty painting to show for it!Posted on MEB My daughter (8) was delighted with the whole experience. Nancy is a true professional and she has a special touch working with children. They worked for almost 2 hours straight, which is very hard to do with an 8-year old. I would recommend this experience to anyone with young children who are interested in art.Posted on Elesha Singh We loved creating this special painting as a family. It represents our most cherished time on vacation together enjoying the sunset on the beach. Thanks to Nancy for bringing my vision to life. It was such a wonderful afternoon painting in your studio. We will definitely be back!Posted on Paula Wemp Such an amazing experience. Nancy is wonderful at guiding with perfect tips and helping with the process. Finally I learned about the discernment part and I can’t believe what I created. Thank you so much! Can’t wait to do it again.Posted on Keethai Tharmaseelan Amazing experience with Nancy. She was able to share new techniques and create beautiful piece with my daughter.Posted on Judi I have tried painting off and on over the years, but have truly struggled to find my creative flow. My overthinking kept getting in the way. But working with Nancy truly changed that for me. Her guidance and support was so invaluable. She truly made me feel comfortable and gave me the confidence to create a beautiful painting. I am so thankful to have met her and am more than pleased with the art she inspired me to create. Thank you Nancy!Posted on Tanya Dickie My partner Chris and I had the most incredible experience at Atelier123 with Nancy! We wanted to create a large canvas for our home, and Nancy went above and beyond to make it an unforgettable experience. She guided us through every step with patience, creativity, and genuine enthusiasm, helping us bring our vision to life while making the process so much fun. The studio itself is warm, inspiring, and beautifully set up — the perfect space to relax and get creative. We left not only with a piece of art we’re proud to hang on our wall, but also with wonderful memories of a truly unique and personal experience. If you’re looking for something special to do — whether you’re an experienced artist or just looking to try something new — we can’t recommend Nancy and Atelier123 highly enough!Posted on Amanda Aerin Atelier123 is a boutique experience that is enlightening and rewarding. Nancy has created an exceptional environment, perfect for fostering creativity in and inclusive manor.Posted on Amna Malik Nancy was a dream to work with! Her studio has beautiful light, welcoming and warm energy. I felt like I was talking to an old friend as we worked together on my piece. It was a safe, judgement free zone which allowed me to create. She remained so positive and encouraging the entire time and I cannot believe what we ended up creating. It was pure magic and working with her will only show you how capable you are! Truly therapeutic! I have no hesitation in recommending her - don’t wait! Go check it out for yourself and create something meaningful all whilst making the coolest new friend!
