“I took Carol Ross's Sumi Ink on Clayboard class on a whim after meeting her at Miska Gallery in Cannon Beach. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Carol's instructions to the class were clearly presented and demonstrated, and she spent time with each of us individually, providing constructive feedback, encouragement, and suggestions. I am so grateful for the handouts, as they helped me purchase the necessary supplies so I can create additional pieces on my own with this easy yet elegant technique. The class included inexperienced artists like myself as well as people with much more experience. All of the students created absolutely beautiful pieces! Mine is proudly displayed in my home, and I smile whenever I look at it. Not bad for acting on a whim!”
