    Super fun class! The instructor was very helpful and engaging throughout. It does require a bit of natural creativity, or at least the willingness to take risks, because you'll make a lot of artistic decisions on your own. It probably would've been better with two instructors since most of the class attendees were beginners, but I still had a lot of fun and went away with a great piece of artwork :) I highly recommend doing it!

    I had a really nice time and Laura was exceptional at explaining technique in a way that not only made sense, but was easy to execute. I am very happy with my painting and it made for a wonderful Sunday afternoon.

    Not sure how we did it but we did it! Laura gave really good instructions and confidence to this ourselves. You really can’t screw this up so go forth and express yourself! If all fails, you can always paint over it to create a new perspective! Try it please! I love my cat’s portrait!

    This class was so much fun and really well suited to all levels. I love my cat painting and it was so good to make something non digital. The instructor was the perfect mix of helpful, inspiring and informative without hampering anyone's creativity.

    I loved attending this class with my daughter. We had a great time and the outcome was really amazing with no pressure with a fun relaxed atmosphere. The instructors were fabulous in every way. They were encouraging but not imposing. I would definitely attend another paint class as a result of this experience.

    The class was a lot of fun! Cary was a great instructor. He offered help and suggestions, but he didn't take over anyone's painting. This class is a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. If you're lucky, you'll be able to find free street parking.
