Karen does such a good job of making her courses worthwhile. She includes heaps of helpful materials, resources and support. As a previous student for years I am thrilled to see she has decided to offer course in Rebelle and not just Corel Painter, which in my opinion is overloaded with features, bells and whistles. I am very grateful to Karen for putting together this course in using Watercolors in Rebelle.
