Recent Workshop Testimonials:

"The Cheshire library recently had Denise Smith give a Leaf Note card program at the library.  She came fully prepared with more than enough supplies to do leaf printing on notecards. Denise put everyone at ease and made it so that everyone was eager to try. Denise demonstrated step by step the painting of the leaves and then went on to further demonstrate more ways to expand on the leaf printing. It was amazing how proud the people attending were to show off their finished notecards."

Cara Luciani, Cheshire Public Library

"I was so pleased with Denise's Nature Art: Pinecone Collage program.  We had a full class with a variety of skill levels.  Denise was very encouraging and everyone created beautiful pieces of art.  Denise provided all of the supplies and clear instructions, yet left plenty of room for participants to express their own creativity.   She even brought music to create a meditative, peaceful tone in the room. Everyone asked me when her next program was, so I will definitely be inviting her back to the Milford Library."
