"Lovely place to visit"
This is a very nice place to visit and see Michael and Emma's paintings (and lampshades). Sit in the garden and enjoy a coffee and cake!

"A plant lover's paradise"
I have attended 3 courses now, two with Emma and one with Mike. I have thoroughly enjoyed each of them and learnt a lot. They are good fun, too and I, and others, were well looked after - the food was excellent too. I hope to join another one soon!

"A wonderful time at Bradness Gallery"
I have taken some courses with Emma and found them to be invaluable. She is such an extremely kind, patient, encouraging and knowledgeable teacher. I have always left feeling much more confident after a day of learning in an atmosphere of warmth and fun (also enjoying delicious food in wonderful surroundings). My day there is an absolute treat! Emma and Mike are both professional artists and you can visit their gallery on site.
I cannot recommend more highly taking a course or popping in to visit their gallery.

"Bradness Gallery"
I have been to several of Mike's landscape painting courses, each time has been hugely enjoyable and an opportunity to learn (without any pressure) from a great artist. Both Emma and Mike are excellent hosts, putting everyone at ease and the lunches (not to forget the mid morning cakes) are always a delight. Set in beautiful surroundings with excellent company, I would recommend this to anyone.

"A Garden Party to remember"
A Garden Party to remember in a beautiful setting - fantastic food, good company and great weather. Emma and Mike, you really know how to put on a 'do' - thank you for a perfect day.

"Highly recommended"
Both Emma and Mike are excellent teachers and have the experience to bring out ones, possibly unknown, potential. Bradness Gallery is set in the heart of the East Sussex in idyllic countryside just a few miles north of Lewes. You will be assured of a professional, cheery and instructive experience. I always come away feeling renewed and look forward the next time!

"A truly inspiring space!"
I have been coming to Bradness Gallery courses for many years now and I suspect I am totally addicted! To the gloriously warm and welcoming Emma and Mike, to the truly delicious and original cakes and lunches, to the riotously beautiful garden. And all that is before I even get to the courses which have been so important to me on my very bumpy painting journey. I have learnt so much, always felt supported and free to work in my own way with inspiring and knowledgeable help always available when needed. Thank you Emma and Mike!

"Bradness Gallery is like a little piece…"
Bradness Gallery is like a little piece of heaven where we always receive the warmest of welcomes.
I came on a three day flower painting course last year and it was so enjoyable. It was relaxing, fun, with gentle, kind, encouraging, patient and, of course, expert tutoring from Emma. I would happily come every year - I am sure it must be so much better than a Spa Day!
The lunches are such a treat too and Mike is always there with a friendly smile (and wine!) - the conversation flows effortlessly. When weather permits it is served in the gorgeous garden in true Larkin style
I also have two of Emma's beautiful lampshades which bring me joy every day and evening
We have come for coffee and delicious homemade cake on numerous occasions, and first came when the garden was so generously opened for the NGS.
Mike and Emma's art is stunning - they are such talented people. I would highly recommend a visit or booking on a course. A voucher would make a fantastic present too
By the way, Mike and Emma are not paying me for this review (!!) - I just can't recommend them and all they do more highly.
I can't wait to come to the Garden Party on 8th May!....

"Excellent Experience"
Prior to the course I felt a huge hesitation on my part. Having eventually plucked up the "courage" to go to the first course; Flower Painting with Emma. It was a magical experience. Emma is an excellent teacher. She creates such an environment that is conducive to seamless learning. She is patient and eager to help when you get stuck. I then attended my second course; Colour Mixing and Theory which was equally outstanding; to the point, consistent, with enough detail and demonstrations. When you left you felt you had learned something. Her passion and dedication is beyond words.
Both Emma and Michael are warm, friendly and fun. They also have great taste in home cooked food which was included.
I look forward to my next course.
