What Students say:

Hi Birgit: Thanks for the info......I didn't realize that the courses were downloadable......I've purchased the course "Landscapes # 2" & I'm looking forward to starting one of the projects this week. I believe I now have all your DVD's, courses & books either in a hard copy, DVD or a downloaded format and have loved each one of them........you have provided one of the most thorough breakdown of watercolor painting and provided many answers to problems that have frustrated me. Painting has now become something thoroughly exciting, to be approached with joy & excitement rather than trepidation & realizing in most cases the end result will be greeted with satisfaction. I look forward to any new courses that you'll be offering in the future........please keep them coming. J
