You have an excellent teaching style that is not only informative and full of practical tips, but is approachable and kind. Usually I am not taking a course to learn a basic concept but to learn the special skills that a particular artist is strong in. You managed to convey BOTH concepts. Which is super rare in an instructor. You taught us to make the flowers,...But you also managed to convey how you see the flower. What moves you and inspires you. That is such a rare gift in the teaching world. So thank you again for your course ❤️ I think it was fantastic!" –– Katy Boisvert Kauffman"This course was fantastic. Cynthia was an excellent teacher, clearly demonstrating a range of techniques, explaining all her material choices and generously sharing an abundance of tips and tricks. I highly recommend it!
