About Donna Francis, Artist ~ instructor
In Donna Francis' case, it's hard to tell whether life imitates art or if it's the other way around. She draws inspiration from the beauty in nature that surrounds her, painting realistic details that range from the delicate petals of a blossoming flower to the soulful eyes of a loyal basset hound. For more than three decades she's honed her craft, and she passes on her tried-and-true techniques to students during classes on oil, acrylic, and watercolor painting, as well as pastels and drawing.

Donna is great, she helps and advises you as you paint. This is not a structured class with lessons beingvtaught, more of a mentoring painting session. Tons of fun, casual and friendly atmosphere.

Not enough instruction! It says for beginners but she was rather rude about my inexperience. Donna also does NOT like all mediums and did ruin my painting by putting oil paint on my acrylic paint. She kept saying it was ok but the acrylic did not stick to the oil. Not liking groupon and the paltry sum she received came out on numerous occasions.

Very nice class for experienced artists. This is not a beginner friendly class.

Donna is a real character - also an excellent artist, as is apparent on her web-site, She gives one on one attention, and will not have more than 6 students in a class. The materials are quite expensive, if you are starting from scratch, but Donna will definitely teach you the tricks of the trade.
