"Maggie is a generous teacher, sharing her talent, tips and offering patient guidance. She not only brought me back to the basics I had forgotten, but she also taught me new methods and techniques I never knew existed! Working with Maggie has helped me to improve measuredly, and the results have elevated my confidence. Maggie has helped me believe I can be the artist I've always aspired to be."

"Maggie is a museum-quality artist and also patient, generous, and helpful to artists of all levels. She guided us methodically through each step of painting a good portrait. You will learn how to use darks and lights to shape the facial features and produce a good likeness. She provides a consistency pleasant atmosphere to relax and paint."

"I loved the entire process from beginning to end. You really don't need much experience to try oil painting, just trust the process. You can learn a lot in just two days. Maggie is very knowledgeable and makes class very enjoyable."


"I love nothing more than to see the light go on in someone's eyes after they learn how miraculous it is to SEE like an artist! And it's easier than everyone thinks. I believe that being a good artist is about 20% talent, and the rest is technique and practice." --Maggie Parr
