Acrylic, Pastel and Mixed Media Workshops; All Styles – Jakki Kouffman

Participate in her scheduled five-day outdoor landscape workshops in Abiquiu during May and in Taos during September. Or you may arrange private customized workshops and individual classes. All skill levels are welcome. See Jakki’s website for details.
