"What a wonderful time I had last weekend at the Ostinell & Priest workshop, lovely friendly atmosphere, hope you'll invite them back at some time."

PAULINE WRIGHT from Leighton Buzzard
"The clay modelling weekend was totally absorbing, a real experience. Looking forward to next time."

SHIRLEY LAKINS from Leighton Buzzard
"Another very absorbing sculpture weekend, thank you...I'm just unable to think of anything else when I get that involved. It's certainly proved to be great therapy for me and I'm so pleased you were able to make it possible for my friend to join the group. It's always good for us, as teachers, to put ourselves in the position of being the learner. We both appreciated how you got round to giving individual advice, if only we could manage the same with classes of 28.........."

ROSALIND ANDREWS from Bury St Edmonds, Suffolk
"Thank you very much for the lovely weekend, we really enjoyed it and went home inspired. We were very pleased with what we managed to achieve and thought your knowledge and manner of tuition were excellent.

FRANCES CULHAM from Leighton Buzzard, Beds.
"I love being part of your "happy little group" and enjoy the friendship and support sharing a passion for art involves. I think it keeps us all positive even when things outside of Phoenix might be difficult and for that I will be always grateful. You inspire us and cheer us and I have made some very good friends and occasionally produced some decent sculpture with your encouragement so thank you so much for that too."

IRENE DAVISON from Henley.
"I'd like to say how much I enjoy coming to the sculpture group. You could not wish for a nicer group of people.
Above all, I really appreciate how much I have learnt from Karin and Peter. Until I came to the Wednesday sessions, I had never done anything other than painting, and now I have discovered a medium which I love and have definitely improved in with their guidance."

ANNIE THOMAS from Thame.
"Just as I was beginning to realise how much I had neglected my 2D work by being a member of the Thursday Life Modelling Group,my wildest dreams came true-a space in the Monday Oil Painting Classes! When will the Phoenix do Face Lifts? Then I will be completely happy!!!!!"

JASPER SCOVIL from Wheatley.
"Many thanks for all your hard work in making The Phoenix Studio such a good place."

ROZ READ from Chalfont St Peter.
"Coming to the studio means a great deal to me and all the lovely people I have met there."

ALLAN HENDERSON from Henley.
"I came to the Phoenix Studio when I first started to sculpt four years ago. Karin Ort, Peter Jones and my fellow students have been very supportive to me during this time. Karin, in particular, has been a guiding hand, for which I will always be very grateful.

The Phoenix Studio is a special friendly place, which I have found to be a fantastic focal point to help me learn about sculpture, and to develop my creativity. I would encourage anyone to come along."
