Paint Starry Nights at the Burlingame Library

I love having a room filled with people who are excited about art.  When they find out how I teach, they can become quite apprehensive.  This was a full class of strangers to me, with most of them being beginner painters.  I want you to see how well they all did-every single one of them!  It gives me great pleasure to inspire people to break free of their fears and explore art in a safe place with just enough encouragement and help if they ask for it.  Here's a quote from a library patron who has attended many of my Paint Like...series over the past 2 years.

"I went with a friend to see Early Rubens at the Legion of Honor.  I realized how much more I could see and respond to in his work based upon my attempts in your "Paint Like...series".  Thanks, Christie!
