“My head was full of garbage re: watercolor being "intimidating" and "hard". So far, you're proving it is nothing but FUN. I'm finally using supplies I bought a couple years ago. Dena expertly breaks down basic concepts in a way that makes it easy for the student to progress without getting frustrated or intimidated. Congratulations on putting together such a professional, well-thought out program. Highly recommend! Treat yourself.”

“I found Dena to be a really caring and encouraging teacher. Her watercolor instruction demonstrations were really helpful for me to re-learn and improve my watercolor skills after 15 years of not touching a paintbrush. ”

“Dena is talented, easy to listen to, and there is SO much to learn from her. Though I had a background in drawing, I flourished with Dena's clear instructions and information. One of my favorite parts of learning from Dena is that she is not 'only' a teacher . She also has working experience in the field with customers, and she has always been available for guidance and support. Can't recommend Dena enough! Take her course... you won't regret it! ”
