"I am a fifty-something housewife and I cannot remember how long I've been taking classes with Hilda. My daughter and I wandered into the shop one day (whilst she was still at Bassaleg Comp) and, apart from one small break, I'm still taking classes - my daughter Claire, used to help Hilda with the children's Saturday classes (she's now 25).
Hilda encouraged me to take A level Art History which I did with some trepidation. When I look back at some of my earlier works I cringe. But I am still enthusiastic, sometimes daunted. When I mutter "pass the tin of Dulux" Hilda knows it's time to cajole and encourage me to carry on - despite my desperate cry "it's rubbish! - let's paint it out and start again!"
I can only say "come on and give it a go" - you might "catch" the art bug and find some new friends as well."
