“It was such a FUN workshop!!!! This was such a great change of pace for me. Sue Horwath
“This was fun! I tried not to think, but just did it.” – Pat Averill
Thanks, Karen. It was actually just some nice creative play for a little while on Saturday. I’m usually so focused on creating something specific with my art that I never let myself have just purely escape time. So it was a great experience.
We could almost charge for this! Thanks again! —Rhonda Dicksion
