Dear Camille and Iakovos,

Thank you very much for a wonderful week. You were so welcoming and the holiday was everything I had imagined and more! The week was well organised and thought out, taking us to lovely places for us to paint without any pressure to perform! I loved our welcome dinner together in the fantastic and reasonable local restaurant on the beach. It was great to just roll up and be given boards, paints, pots and little stools to use and always find shady places. The accommodation was amazing with trays of breakfast brought to our balconies round the pool.
I really appreciated your gentle guidance and found myself painting pictures that I never thought I would be able to achieve. The variety of the countryside was truly inspiring and I kept painting when I tagged on a second week in Chania.
Thank you both so much for a brilliant holiday, which couldn't have been any better. I met some lovely people and I hope to come again next year, maybe in October.
