I typically don’t write reviews, but for this guy I had to. I initially was apprehensive because I hadn’t touched art professionally in a long time. He was very patient and thorough from the very beginning. I will be continuing to receive courses from him going forward, because the transition back in was so easy. He has returned my inspiration.

He is fantastic! Works well with you and is super encouraging. I can’t wait to see how my art progresses with his instruction.

Janelle is very passionate about painting. When she gives you step by step instructions on painting it makes it very easy. And I was very impressed with my painting as a first time painter.

Thank you Edelweiss! I was very lucky to be able to be taught online which was very helpful since the pandemic began since I’m 15 I was nervous about the online concept but I was very happy with the outcome. I was very happy to learn more about printmaking, drawing and painting, you were a very helpful teacher and I will come back and take more art lessons in print making because I’ve seen all that you can do in printmaking and I love the concepts that you covered. I was really impressed in how much I was able to improve in my drawing and painting skills under you’re teaching. You really covered all the basics very professionally when it comes to the different types of painting and drawings that I wanted to learn and this is proof of how much you know and understand when it comes to mixed media art. Thanks to you I’ve realized how you can incorporate paint and printmaking into drawing and collage which opens up a more broad perspective towards art. It was also very helpful that you could speak multiple languages which was a big help to students who spoke other languages. Thank you I look forward to learning more laughter by you.

I've been hoping to learn to sew for a while, and I'm so glad I finally found Valerie! She is very accommodating, knowledgable, and patient! I am learning so much and am really enjoying exploring my creative side. I highly recommend learning to sew with Valerie!
