Diana Belenky is the Bee's Knees. There, I said it…read more If there's one thing Diana knows how to do, it's to teach. I have had a great many teachers who know how to draw and paint--even the legendary Henry Yan--but very few who know how to teach it. With a great sense of humor, a veritable wealth of information, and a heaping dose of patience, Diana excels at sharing her knowledge and demonstrating its application effectively. If ever you were uncertain of how to, say, capture a specific kind of fold in your gesture drawing, then you need not look further than Diana for just how to do it.

Diana is a DREAM of a teacher. I am an adult beginner and new to drawing and painting, and wanted…read moreto get the foundations down. Diana is SO knowledgeable and organized. She took me from drawing in flat, 2-D to a beautiful 3-D drawing in pencil, in only 3-4 lessons. She is so thoughtful, organized and flexible - she sequenced and adjusted her curriculum to my needs and adjusted to my style of learning seamlessly. In addition, she interweaves art history into her lessons so you understand what she is teaching in context. And she is so nurturing and encouraging! I've gone through a few teachers and she is one of the very best. I recommend Diana for anyone looking to improve their skills.

I truly loved the independent work and collections of folks there and it was lovely. The people at the register were very snarky and rude. Almost as if I was taking something but I had already provided the tag of the star I purchased. They were sure to get my items counted and paid for but did not get my bag to me until the kind blackberry Jam lady got it for me a minute later. Customer Service is important and you should work on this especially if you want to foster a spirit of community. Thank you for the Blackberry Jam and home made items I am grateful.

Great nursery in the Valley of the Moon. It is on the Sonoma highway, but tucked away from the…read moreroad. They do not have a big fancy blinged out sign. It is a bit more discreet, we missed it on the first drive by. I do appreciate nurseries, so we made an u turn back. If this helps it is right next to Kenwood spa & resort. They do have a impressive signage with a brick wall gated entry. The fella working that day in the nursery was very knowledgeable. Plus he had a laid back easy going demeanor. The plants are laid out under some oak trees (maybe valley oaks). They have over 200 varieties of Japanese maples, 40 + varieties of dogwoods, and others. All the plants were in excellent condition, they were well cared of. We walked around...enjoying the beautiful varieties and meandering pathways mixed in with a few art sculptures. I eyed a $15 yucca plant. Great deal. But had no room in the car to transport it. Darn. I definitely will check them out again when I am in the area. I will make room for that yucca plant. :) BTW they conduct gardening workshops and seminars. Most are free. Check out their website.
