Liz, July
Fabulous workshop with so much individual attention. I loved how she told about the history of the Katrina so I have a better appreciation for the artistry. I especially value that she purchases the base Katrina´s from indigenous artists to provide them income and to keep their art alive. Hughly recommend.
