Emma ran a great party for my daughter’s 9th birthday on Sunday. She was really lovely to work with, and really good with the kids, who were all a bit shy. And we all loved learning how to draw cartoons. Thank you, Emma!

January 16 My daughter had her 8th birthday party online. All the children (arty or not, even the little siblings) had a wonderful time!
Thank you so much Emma!

January 9 - Emma did a great job hosting my son’s 6th birthday party during tier 3 restrictions. She was able to tailor the session to what Hugo wanted to learn to draw, and she facilitated the session enthusiastically and encouragingly. She sent me all the invites my guests needed in advance, and followed up with some fun screenshots and a video of Hugo’s friends singing him Happy Birthday. It was a great way to connect with his friends over the school holidays and as a parent it was the easiest party I’ve ever hosted! 😄 I’d highly recommend Emma!

January 1 Emma does a wonderful job! My daughter is savoring the classes. Effortlessly, she is improving both her English and her drawing skills. Loads of fun and beautiful results. Thank you, Emma!

December 16 Emma is passionate and fun about art, and really knows how to engage with children, she has mastered the online zoom parties and classes. My girls think she is awesome and they have learnt so much from her.

December 7 - We have celebrated our daughter’s birthday in a brilliant alternative way. Emma is SUPER. She has been amazing and my daughter’s friends (Y1) have loved drawing monsters and face cartoons with Emma. They have all asked their parents to have the same birthday celebration.
Brava Emma, ❤️

November 24 This was great fun, we did a cartoon drawing class for my Mum’s 70th birthday. Emma makes it easy to follow and takes one detail at a time.

April 18 We had a clay modelling party for my daughter’s 11th birthday. Emma was fantastic, it was so well organised and all the children were engaged for the full 90 minutes. I’ve never known such a quiet, chilled party! All materials were provided and they each took home everything they’d made (at least 2, but some managed 4 clay models). Highly recommended. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
