I enjoyed this class. It was a fun project. I like that there was a printout of the list of materials/paints to use. It was easy to follow. I am a slow painter, but thanks to the pause button, I could pause it to catch up or let my paints dry. I will look for Kerrie’s other classes to join also. Thanks Kerrie!
