BALMAIN TO NORTH SYDNEY
“I couldn't let the weekend pass without thanking Alisa Cooper for an absolutely fabulous introduction to Travel Sketching.
Her easy and supportive teaching style made learning so much fun.
I have to confess I am hooked for life.
Now bring on the once a month workshops starting soon. 🥰❤️🤗
