About the facilitator:
Painting and teaching are Faith’s passions! Her studio, The Art House Knysna, is well-known on the Garden Route art scene and beyond. Her signature works are mainly botanicals and anything to do with nature, sometimes with a twist! She loves experimenting with techniques and colours. Faith says she can’t resist a splash of metallic paint here and there! She undertakes commissions for interior decorators and private individuals, and she participates in group exhibitions.
Faith came from a multi-talented creative family and then went on to study design and work as an illustrator for a publishing company. With this background she developed a love of fine art and painting.
