Course & Teaching Reviews
"A fantastic four day course with Sarah Morrish. Sarah was a superb tutor as always, coping with a class of students at all different levels of botanical and nature illustration. She provided a very full programme with a stunning range of teaching resources. Her knowledge of the natural world is inspiring and she extended the teaching to include subjects such as bat detecting and the use of a moth trap".
"Sarah is a conscientious and excellent teacher. She is an extremely skilled and professional artist who is able to effectively impart her knowledge to her students. I have attended many of her courses and found them to be both enjoyable and instructive. I highly recommend her courses".

"Sarah is an experienced and highly-respected artist. I have attended Sarah’s workshops and have been amazed at her level of knowledge, the amount of prep she must put in before each workshop and the support and guidance she gives to even the most apprehensive of students. Her enthusiasm is inspiring. I have attended many courses and workshops over the years, and would place those run by Sarah as amongst the best".
