I began my fiber education a long time ago, but it was side-lined by life happening. After a 20-year break, I ran across your workshop brochure for fiber workshops about eight years ago and my life literally changed! I am now able to dedicate much of my free time to my art. All thanks to your school.

Our workshop went really well, and we want to thank you for your behind the scenes work that you did. We realize that you and Lisa work so well together and your efforts are our reward. Teaching at PNW is always a delight and we know that you two work hard and diligently to make it such a wonderful platform for all instructors. Our only regret this year was that we did not get much of a chance to interact with you personally, but we really appreciate both your and Lisa’s dedication and hard work towards our success. Have a great summer, Silvermans

Regarding the PNWAS: I am extremely impressed by your school and its program, especially the quality of the teachers you have been able to assemble over the years. So thanks to you, to the school, and to all those Coupevillians that took such good care of us during our stay. We are grateful for your energies and doing what you do so well!

Your website is stunning and beautiful. Your customer service is great. When I pulled up and saw your building, I did a double take as I expected a huge edifice. What you are able to do with your small facility is wonderful, and I have been very impressed…

>I just wanted to say that I had a great experience for my first visit to Whidbey Island. The painting class was fun – I doubt that I will ever be a watercolourist but I learned a lot which will be applicable to other mediums. Gary (Schallock) is an excellent teacher – probably the best I have ever had in terms of presentation and clarity of instruction as well as being a skilled artist. My hosts Christine Laing and John Olsen were also great – very hospitable and friendly and there home was lovely. I can highly recommend them for other students. Hope to return in the fall.

Am so excited to finally be enrolled in one of your classes…a 1st time for me. Have been looking at your offerings for years. Always so many good classes and artists whose names I know, whose work I love. Thank you.
