Workshop Testimonials

With over 10 years of instruction, here's some student reactions

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the incredible workshop experience. My time spent painting in picturesque Carmel was nothing short of fabulous. Kathleen, your mastery of paint color, brushwork, and composition left me truly awestruck, and your teaching abilities are equally remarkable. I am grateful for the knowledge I gained during our time together. — Tami
Thanks for setting up the Karl Dempwolf workshop. He’s a great California painter that really has a very unique style and approach. He really helped me in a number of ways just listening to him and observing how he paints, messes around, and keeps listening to his powers of observation. I appreciate what you do.
Thanks, Rolf
Debra Huse, I want to thank you for the most memorable, informative, and enjoyable workshop. Your lessons were exactly what I needed. I learned so much from you about plein air painting, color, composition, and values, I know my painting, whether oil or acrylic will reflect this new learning.
Thank you again best wishes,
Patty
