.Instructor: Sue Safarik 

As far back as I can remember, I have had an interest in making art and learning new ways to do it. My goal in teaching others is not just to have them reproduce a specific item, but to give them access to the tools and techniques that allow them to express their own creativity in ways unique to them. I believe this is a universal drive, and one of the things that connects us as human beings. I am always amazed at the creativity of other artists, and I hope I can inspire others to introduce their own “inner artist” to the world!
