I once heard that if a person has a good experience with a hairdresser, they will tell 2-5 people. If a person has a fiasco with their hairdresser, they will tell 10-15 people. I feel that too often praise is trodden underfoot, and in its squelched position marches complaint, usually regarding minor injustice. I have decided to spread the news about the most fabulous art teacher I have ever had. I would like to dedicate this post to Susan Parkinson, a highly skilled and inspiring art teacher at Utah Valley University. Sue is solely interested in the students' development. She wants you to become motivated by the pure love of art, not a grade. Sue will do whatever it takes to help you in gathering resources, and focusing in on your vision, what you are expressing. She wants you to become so excited about the artistic process that this becomes your impetus. If you live in Utah, or in a bordering state, you should seriously consider taking a class from Sue (she teaches painting) before she retires, becomes wildly famous, and is so busy with gallery showings that she has no time for any of us!
