REVIEWS
It was excellent. The class made me so aware of realizing just how much beauty there is in the depth perception of the city scape and landscape all around me. As I was driving about after the class I could not take my eye off of all shapes and angles. Simon explained to me how to use a few techniques to create arches, focal points and properly begin with drawing buildings and structures.

It was nice meeting Samantha, she gave me a few options as we sat and got acquainted. She gave me freedom to sketch what ever. I opted to draw several settings around the part. I was challenged to press myself in a couple of directions. If this is offered again I'd go. I would like to see a few more participants, that would be a great way for folks to learn, challenge, get to know a diverse community.

Though I?ve never done any formal art training, I felt this was an excellent medium to express my creativity. About a year later I stumbled on a chalk art festival where all sorts of artists with various skill levels exhibited their work and it was all up from there. I?ve been honing my skills and continue learning along the way. Since then I?ve participated in 8

As a boy I loved sitting on both of my grandmother's porches and listening to them telling storys of their childhood. I also love sunrises and the mountains. This painting combines all those things for me.

This rock came from lake Michigan on the west side of the shores. This rock is actually a fossil type of stone and I got my inspiration from waves landing in the sand and I could imagine the buoys and one loan sailboat trying to get to the pier before the darkness.
