The Studio Bulletin is BACK! Here is the latest Studio Bulletin featuring Elaine Sheppard’s visit…
Both the wedding and the portrait course 2 on Friday were full. Probably the most high powered group we have ever had.
In talking to some students about their background, and their reason for doing the course some interesting situations came to light. One student really represented what is happening in the UK at the moment. Having had a successful business for some years with sales of £40,000 per month, these had suddenly crashed to £3000 per month! Catastrophic.
This students company was dealing primarily with the public sector, and business dried up immediately the coalition were returned to Parliament.
This recession is not across the board, it is selecting some individuals and hitting them very hard, whilst others are hardly effected at all.
