Sandy was true to her word. Immediately upon meeting her I felt relaxed and ready to try anything. She is an amazing teacher, knowledgeable about so many things, but most importantly knowing how to present her knowledge and skills to help students in a way that gives them confidence in their own abilities as well. The class was fun, positive, enlightening, and opened my mind to many new possibilities in my pursuit of being an artist.
