    I really liked this course because we got to do our own projects and it felt really good to accomplish something that was worth a lot. Chris really helped me when I was stuck on a certain part of my painting and overall it was a great project and course!!

    I really enjoyed taking this course having visits in the classroom and giving advice on my painting that I could do at my own pace. I also really like how it was a one on one activity that I could do this course throughout the school year.
