We had the pleasure of meeting our instructor the day before our painting class for a world wind tour of the Van Gogh Museum. Minerva was a fun and knowledgeable tour guide! We learned a lot about the artist and left with a better understanding of the artist and his works.
The following day I took my 11 year old son, and two teenage daughters for the “Paint like Van Gogh” art class. The class was held in Minerva’s bright and beautiful studio overlooking the canal. We each decided on a different piece to do, and worked with Minerva for several hours to complete them. We were each guided patiently, and given many tips on how to best complete our paintings. We went over our allotted time, but were never rushed, we were encouraged to complete our paintings to everyone’s satisfaction. We were engaged with many interesting stories and given treats to enjoy while we were painting. We were even given a gift to take home!
It was a highlight of our vacation!! Minerva is a fantastic guide and teacher!
