"This 2-day workshop was not only inspiring, but it also gave us a useful framework to use as we go forward with our painting journey. I really appreciate that it's a simple and uncomplicated structure and one we can refer back to constantly. The atmosphere in our workshop was not only positive, motivating, and supportive, but fun and playful."
