Challenging and Supportive
Helen shared her knowledge and time to support each student individually as we experimented with these new materials. She challenged us to think in new ways and gave generously of her support when we had questions or encountered problems in our work.

I just read the comments on my work and want to thank you for what you added. I am happy to have your expanded opinions. Very helpful and so encouraging. You made my day.

This painting has been my nemesis for weeks. But acrylic skins like I learned from Helen’s workshop brought it together and saved it.  Thanks Helen!
