Student Comments:
I have received
some pretty heartwarming comments from students, but this one made me weak in the knees....I'm sharing it with the permission
of Barb, the student who wrote it (thanks, Barb..I am so flattered..).... "I want to thank you so very much for sharing
yourself and your amazing expertise. You are an amazing artist with the rare ability to share your knowledge with others.
As you said to me in our class, I have had the good fortune to learn from several incredibly talented artists and teachers
but you are certainly one of the best. The hours and hours of time required to develop your skills and expertise is extremely
impressive. I recognize after spending 2 days with you that your incredible creativity allows you to come up with techniques
no one else has thought of. Then the hours of work you put into preparing for the class is very evident. Finally, you explain
things so clearly and in such detail that I understood immediately what I needed to do to produce a beautiful polymer cane.
But more than anything else, your sincerity and openness allowed me to truly enjoy you and therefore my entire weekend. Everytime
I look at my cane I can't stop myself from smiling. That feeling of happiness is priceless."
SugarHouseStudio I am now teaching workshops and private
lessons from our newly renovated all-purpose building in the Sugar House district of Salt Lake City (the lovely
room where multi-student workshops will be held is shown below; private lessons will be held in my personal studio, also located
in this building). If you'd like to be added to the workshop mailing list or have questions about workshops
or private lessons, please click here, or email me at jana@janarobertsbenzon.com
Come join in the fun as we create and laugh and learn together....the
Salt Lake area has a great core group of clayers who love getting together! We'd love to have you join us, whether
you're a beginner or intermediate clayer!
Join us for the next workshop
