Color Retreat Reviews
- "Even if you think you know color theory this is a great way to see color in a new way."
- "The atmosphere was relaxed, with just enough class structure to cover the necessary material, and plenty of time to apply what we were learning to our own work."
- "Maggie's color retreat was an inspiration. It was wonderful to meet and work with artists using a variety of media. I learned so much from everyone around me. I would recommend the retreat to any artist; no matter how well they think they know color, they will come away with fresh ideas."
- "This was a fabulous experience. I had always assumed that if I tried to mix my own colors, I'd end up with mud. Now, not only am I looking forward to mixing...but I really like the possibilities of "mud"!
