“You went beyond the basics by giving us individual attention while offering gentle assessments and constructive suggestions to works in progress. You made yourself readily available between classroom instruction with prompt, dependable assistance when I needed help with my blog. More importantly you inspired us to view our art in a new light; to focus on the meaning of our mediums and why we create. I learned firsthand why you are a great teacher.” – Della Nohl, artist
