The workshop at Terry Ludwig Studio with Barbara Jaenicke was a gas. I had more fun than would be thought legal. She is a very kind and informative person with lots of helpful insights into how to make a paintings sing with vibrancy and flair. The workshop inspired me to do more pastels. I love pastels but I admit to feeling that they aren't as successful as I my oil paintings. I left with a feeling of wanting more, more, must have more.
