Customer Comments:

"It just amazes me how much I've learned from Karen. I've never been able to even draw a stick figure. My only regret is that I did not try this sooner in life. I enjoy painting so much and wish that everyone would give themselves the chance to learn it. It really isn't something you are born with, it can be an acquired skill with the right teacher and a sense of humor! The people I've met going to class have become friends and I look forward to seeing them each week."

"I never thought I could learn to paint. I'm amazed at some of the beautiful things I've been able to paint".
B. Perez, Somerville, MA

"What I like about the classes are first the great bunch of "girls" I have become friends with. I think learning different techniques is probably what I find most interesting. I took oil painting classes many years ago where you were told what color paint without learning why. This is not so much what project you are painting, but learning what paints, (all acrylics are different) and brushes (all have different purposes) are used for in that particular project."
L. Camberlain, Saugus, MA

"After painting my first item, I was hooked. What looks hard to paint is a snap. Karen helps take all the mystery out of painting and shows how easy it is. The people that I paint with are great. It's a wonderful relaxing time to get together."
L. Moore, Wakefield, MA

"Karen's painting class has been completely positive. I have gone from not knowing the proper way to load a brush to creating pieces I am truly proud of - enough so that I have sold many of them! Karen gears projects to the group's current painting expertise (or in my case lack of) - always taking students to the next level of learning and challenge. Her primary focus is on technique - encouraging students to learn a variety of styles - instead of just learning one artist's style."
