"Not only was it fun but I loved how you gave your testimony in regard to your battle with cancer and how your love of Jesus shone through!" ~ Mari L.

"I had my first painting experience with YICP when they were at the Great River Care Center helping the residents paint. My husband absolutely loves it when he gets to paint. Your dedication and pure talent is inspiring to many of us that can't really paint but you seem to make it look effortless Lynda. I have 2 paintings of my husband's and two of mine hanging in the house! Thank you so much Lynda for letting the rest of us enjoy painting as much as you do! Thank you to Bob for all your help during these painting groups!" ~ Kim B.

"I purchased one of your painting kits as a Christmas gift for my 9 year old Niece. She loved it. She got out her paints and instantly started painting the monarch butterfly. It was a joy to see her be so creative and have fun. She loved her finished product and hung it proudly in her bedroom." ~ Cari P.

"I first met Lynda at a foraging class taught by one of my very dear and awesome friends. She told all of us her story and I found it very fascinating and then learned she taught painting classes. I never thought of myself as a good painter until I went to one of her classes. She is so patient and sweet and so talented! She makes it so easy for anyone to be able to make an amazing creation that they can be proud of. I have been to a few of her classes and loved every one! Thanks Lynda!" ~ Lisa J.

She makes her class fun!" ~ Brenda B.

"With Lynda's classes and her availability to answer questions via messenger and E-mail, her gentle and kind encouragement and art knowledge, Lynda has taken me, someone with low self esteem and fear of failure, to the point where I actually enjoy challenging myself { a mistake is only a learning tool and can be painted over}. Now I have done my first commissioned piece! I am still learning----thanks sooo much, Lynda! My 7yr. old grandson loves her too!" ~ Ann D.
