From the moment I walked in the door for Karen Taylor's class on May 14, I felt welcomed by you and the other staff members. The school is so amazingly beautiful and even though it is quite spacious, it is also very cozy and has a good spirit about it. I will certainly be back for other classes. Your school has given me the kick-start I need to get back to painting and getting creative again."
