"...thank you for a wonderful week. There is no doubt that this week has been a tremendous influence on me. Strangely, for a person who never really liked abstract art, I find the week has left a lasting impact on me and really opened my mind to new adventures in artistic endeavor.

I was enthused about painting before, but now I find myself almost driven to experiment with all the new techniques and I can't wait to get at my easel. The only down size is that I like to use larger canvases and I paint much faster. I can't wait for your next workshop in our area Steve. Thanks again for being an inspiring teacher."
