He turned his kitchen into a painting studio!

Nothing pleases me more than to have the creative fire ignited within one of my students. During my recent studio workshop, Taos potter Ginto Naujokas, rediscovered the thrill of the creative process using paint.  Here is some of what he wrote: 

"What an inspiration you are....I have turned the kitchen into a painting studio.  Lots of blank canvas to cover with techniques shown to me by the Smokin HOT Golden Girl.  I am so glad I took your workshop. ...you are an amazing artist, teacher and a very fun person to be around...till next time,  Ginto

Since he was here last month, he has been painting like a mad man.  I have seen many of the exciting new works and couldn't be more impressed.  I am deeply moved when my years of education, of teaching, and of hard work in the studio, play a role in expanding the gifts of someone else. Not all my students transform their kitchens into painting studios...thank you Ginto....you make me look good!   joanfullertonworkshops.com
