Kathy“I'm hooked on these lessons with Nancy. I find her use of color to make every painting come alive fascinating. I'm learning a lot and can see myself improving after every lesson."

Cecilia"Until Nancy, I was basically a failure to launch, always studying but rarely painting, so basically a dreamer. Thanks to Nancy, I paint now. Vivid color is something totally new to me, little did I understand at this phase of my life how much I needed it. The colors permeate my soul."

Patricia"You will start to build a fine art language that permeates all the lessons. Nancy is always sweeping up prior info, reinforcing and building new info in a humorous, poetic and dependable style. She has powerful consistency!"
