“Sara’s is the best class I’ve experienced. Her approach to teaching and supporting her students allowed me to develop at my own pace while pushing me (gently) to try new approaches. Also, Yardley Arts is an amazing venue, far superior to that of any class I’ve been to, including a good university life drawing class”
