Art Class Reviews
For the past few months, I have been very blessed to be a part of this amazing scholarship opportunity. It has been great for me! Super fun, and I am so glad I got to meet all of these wonderful people. I am so grateful that Paul gave me this opportunity. If anyone else has the chance, I would highly recommend that they jump on this opportunity.
Andee Losee - Fugal Scholarship recipient
At first, I was trepidatious. But in Paul's classes, I soon started to love learning about art and making art myself. I have always loved art, but my appreciation for it has grown so much as I've learned to make it myself. Thanks Paul, for being an outstanding and caring teacher for both me and my daughter!
Brigham Fugal
Paul is an amazing artist, and has a desire to share his information with others. He is always looking for ways to help others in their paths to success, and has taken my art from “Oh, that’s nice,” to “WOW—you drew that?” He is a truly wonderful teacher! I’m so grateful to have been able to take his classes and look forward to taking many more.
