I have attended more than eight summer schools and three winter schools at Sturt Craft College in Mittagong. They are always an intense, well-managed experience, where you can get obsessed by a new skill or even perfect an old one, in a friendly environment.

Recently I attended another highly enjoyable and productive McGregor Winter School at USQ in Toowoomba. This was my second Winter School, this time choosing to stay off campus, whereas last year, as a first timer, I lived in.

Having become enthusiastic about painting early last year, I set out to find some tuition to fast track my impatience to improve faster than I was progressing alone. I came across McGregor School's advertisement, which seemed like the perfect arts retreat. A whole week of painting and socialising with fellow artists and no cooking in sight!
