“My kids actually enjoyed art for the first time. I have an 8 and a 6 year old. Usually when I put out art projects, I spend a lot of time setting up, and they are done in 2 minutes flat. But through this class I learned how to talk to them about the process and not encourage or discourage how they were taking part in the art process. Which was a VERY difficult challenge for this mom. But I did not even know I was doing that to my kids, until I took this class.”
“Loved the introductions to famous artists – an entry into the mind and world of an artist.”
“Having so much fun with this week! I feel like the unconventional projects are opening up my perfectionist to doing art without it needing to be ‘right’.”
“It was so nice and relaxing to spend time with my son and just create together.”
“The boys are really into this! I’m so glad I signed up.”
