Workshop Testimonials

Dear Carol, The “Watercolor Workshop” at Innsbrook last weekend was just an all around amazing experience!I am thrilled that I had the opportunity to watch, listen and learn as you gave us demonstration and instruction in watercolor. This was by far the best art workshop or class that I have attended. You not only took the time to show us your process, step by step, but you also provided individual instruction and personal encouragement. Your ability to articulate yourself and your work was so helpful. I felt like a thirsty little sponge, soaking up every word (and I have the pages of notes to prove it!)  The hours just flew by and I found myself dreading that last hour of class. I’m glad that you have a gallery (and website) that I can visit when I need another dose of inspiration.Please let me know when and where you might be teaching again – and save me a spot!

I really enjoyed the weekend workshop on so many levels.  You truly give an enormous amount of knowledge, information, technique and encouragement to your students.  I’m ready to return for another one, watercolor or acrylic.

Just one more thank you for a wonderful weekend at Innsbrook. You are a fantastic instructor; I hope you come back to us soon to inspire us and to teach us. Ugo Betti said, "Nothing matters half so much that we answer each other, that we talk to each other."Carol taught us how to talk to others through our art.  She answers with beauty and sensitivity.  Thank you, Carol.
