Blair's genius as a teacher is in allowing students to get hands-on quickly. She knows how to tailor her vast knowledge to what someone new to the craft really needs to know to get creative. Once you are hooked, her mentoring turns regular people who thought they could never do this kind of thing into legitimate artists.

Blair is a terrific and demanding instructor. I really appreciate that she stresses mastering basic skills. She lets students progress at their own pace.

Blair is one of my favorite teachers. She shares her knowledge in a non-condescending way and gives me wonderful inspiration to take that knowledge and create something wonderful. If it doesn't work out, she is there to help me get back on track.

As a former art teacher, what I appreciated about my experience with Blair was her phenomenal organizational skills, her warm personality, her clarity of instruction & attention to detail. Every work station was outfitted with tools, & every demo illustrated how we were to approach the methods we were attempting to master . Blair was available to help & encourage us at every turn. I was awed at the combination of her talent as an artist as well as her ability to teach each student to feel comfortable with the tools & materials in order to have successful outcomes.
