Students praise Watercolors from Family Photos for their great teacher, Wennie, who effectively demonstrates the painting techniques that students will use. The classes provide students with the opportunity to learn and develop their painting skills. One student mentions that they were able to walk away from the class with a better understanding of color mixing and creating depth in their paintings. The most insightful quote that describes what students learned is, "I learned how to bring my family photos to life through vibrant watercolors and how to effectively use different techniques to create depth and dimension in my paintings."
