Laura was such a great teacher. She taught us the basics and then taught us some fun techniques. It was great to learn how to watercolor and be given the space to play. Plus she sent us resources so we could continue to watercolor on our own. I highly recommend this class.

Loved this class! Welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. Laura took us through a few basic techniques and then we created on our own. Appreciated the follow up email with reminders on what we learned and a supply list. Planning to take her art journaling class next!

Laura is an excellent teacher. She took us step by step through water color techniques, having us experiment with each step. We each went home with our own little "portfolio". She made the class fun at the same time. And after the class was over, she sent us a pdf of everything we had learned. I loved this class and will be back for more.
