Nicky returns to the Borders to this much loved venue, just 1 hour south of Edinburgh, which provides a welcoming and comfortable retreat from the autumn chill. There are spectacular views to rolling Border countryside from the generous windows and a wide variety of mature trees and farm buildings within yards of the studio door. This is an ideal place to get to grips with the soft light of autumn as it slants through the trees and you create dynamic drawings and washes of paint to sum up the fleeting moments and capture the lanscape.
Heriot Toun is a purpose built artist’s studio, has won 6 major design prizes since it was founded by Pat and Andy Law, and is fast becoming the cultural hub of the Borders.

I have such pleasant memories of the Mijas 'holiday'; Nicky put together such a well-balanced trip and the company was delightful too. I hope I can take part again next year.

I remember fondly the week-end at Cattlerline and also our holiday in Mexico.

The scenery was insiprational everywhere we went. The teaching was excellent, as was the organisation at every level and the group atmostphere was utterly relaxed and friendly. I can't wait to book up for next year.

Just a note to say thank you for a most enjoyable and instructive week. I feel I have learnt so much and am motivated to do more drawing and carry a sketch-book.
ML, Cephalonia
The time and effort spent on planning and organisation must have been considerable but the fact that everything ran so smoothly was testament to that and made it all the more enjoyable for the group.

We had excellent tuition, a fantastic studio to work in; the views were very dramatic and atmospheric.
