We are Thankful for Your Kind Words
I’ve attended free, as well as paid, online classes regularly organised by FRESH (ST)ARTS. The beginner Zentangle classes are generally suitable for tweens too, makes a good parent-child bonding activity. Admin is friendly and helpful, registration always a breeze and good quality supplies (paid, if required for classes) delivered timely. Certified trainer patiently goes through steps in a calm soothing voice, sharing tips along the way. Love that she encourages us to embrace the imperfections, instead of stressing over any “mistakes”. Focusing on a learned Zentangle design, it has brought about mindfulness and quietens intrusive thoughts. Calming and relaxing, highly recommended!
Very detailed and precise explanation. Easy for me to understand and put the ideas into paper.. Ms Zarinah, the instructor is very patient and very experienced.. Ms Naz , the founder n admin is very approachable and open to any enquiries and ideas. It was really nice to communicate with her. The art class is therapeutic for me and helps me calm my nerves. I have done my art and is so happy with my work. Am looking forward for future classes!
I've attended Zentagle sessions with Fresh Starts SG twice and both times, it has been therapeutic and amazing. The instructor is patient and sessions are easy to follow. One thing I like about the sessions is that it's ok to make mistakes, which helps in building confidence and allowing the creative juices to flow. I highly recommend sessions with Fresh Starts SG, especially if you are looking for a fuss-free creative outlet!
Zarinah is a very talented and skilful teacher, who is very dedicated to her craft. She renders her lessons with obvious expertise. She is also a very patient and kind teacher who has offered the public Zentangle lessons for free, introducing various tangles each time. My interest in this art form has grown thanks to her teaching. She makes students feel as though creating beautiful art is within reach of novices, like myself. 100% recommended. 😊
