“Petit Papillon is class mixture of fantasy and reality. You may start off with a particular baby in mind to paint but then you can turn them into butterflies, fairies, angels, anything you can imagine. You end up with a unique, beautiful baby that’s so adorable you can hardly stand it! Olga teaches in a very informative, relaxed way that is easy to follow. I loved this class” – Carolyn Myles (painting on the left)
