I loved every aspect of the class and how Sherri taught it. I just watched the first time, and learned so much by watching her. She is a fantastic teacher and artist who inspires me. This class is a keeper - I love how calm and encouraging she is and how well she shows and explains what she is doing. So freeing! My kind of class!
