3 day intensive apprenticeships through VAWAA (Vacation With An Artist)

Denise, 3 day intensive course through VAWAA:

"My time with Tessa in her studio was absolutely excellent. We focused on gel plate printing and abstract collage, which was what I had requested. Along the way, I learned a dozen things that I hadn't known regarding materials and methods. Tessa's own work is really gorgeous and is prominently displayed in her studio. It, like Tessa herself, was a source of inspiration and instruction. Tessa's studio is well stocked with every imaginable need as well as an extensive art library. I loved that we got right down to business. Tessa had a plan for me, and we executed it. And as promised, there were snacks and tea and coffee. Tessa is an accomplished artist and teacher; and she is a kind-hearted person. I loved being in her presence. It's possible to stay with Tessa in her guest room. I did not choose to do that because I was traveling with my daughter. I think it would have been lovely to stay with Tessa, and I would recommend it --even though I didn't do it. The neighborhood is walkable with a multitude of restaurants nearby."

Karina, 3 day intensive course through VAWAA:

"What a wonderful experience! Tessa's warm nature and vast knowledge were welcoming and inspiring! … She kept the time we spent in the studio together interesting and engaging. I truly feel I learned so very much and built upon my (relatively new) exploration in the world of art. Her studio space is bright and spacious and was available to me 24/7!"
