Wyoming . . . "As a retired educator, after 35 years in the classroom, I can appreciate the skill that Dora Hagge exhibits in her glowing color demonstrations and in her lectures . . . comprehensive, interesting, knowledgeable and professional.  She is an inspiration to her students."       J. Welsh, BA, MA
Nebraska . . . "Dora presents design and color theory in such a way that the light bulbs immediately go on in your head and solutions to the problems you have been struggling with become a reality you can deal with."       
M. Rooney
Maryland . . . "I found Dora's design workshop to be empowering!  I now have the tools to control many aspects of watercolor that previously controlled me."        J. Martin
Ohio . . . "I think your workshop this year surpassed the one last year and it was great!  Everyone is still talking about it and planning to return next year. In class, we showed our paintings and we were amazed how much our colors had changed." K. Massie
Iowa . . . "I just wanted to thank you for all of the exciting ideas and information you gave me.  It's a big challenge putting them to use.  Please keep on teaching.  You have a great gift to give others."           K. Forbes
West Virginia . . . "Your workshop was the most wonderful study of color and technique. 
I remember your wonderful colors and combin-ations of transparent colors.  I'm afraid that I have been guilty of selectings colors by other suggestions (including the fact that they were less expensive - or so I thought) and after being in your workshop I am convinced that the tools one works with are so valuable.  You are definitely an inspiration to all who cross your path and I truly hope I can join you again next year."            P. Legg
Indiana . . . "I learned the importance of design and value sketching, color impact, and making a color key.   I hope I can retain a fraction of what I have learned.   Please do come back!"           M. Mulligan
Wyoming . . . "Happy and very organized class with excellent emphasis
on design and color theory.  Marvelous demonstrations showing methods of planning."       N. Simpson, BFA, MA, MFA
Virginia . . . "It is my belief that sitting at the feet of master painters is extremely valuable, even critical, to the serious art student.  Dora's design workshop is expecially rare, she distills design principles into workable tools . . . you want to go back again and again.  I enjoy going to top workshops.  I automatically sign up for next year."       S. Lewis
Nebraska . . . "Without compromising my personal style, it gave me a wealth of information that I could start to use immediately."   
S. Rouse
Delaware . . . "Thank you for a wonderful week of art instruction in design.  Not even in college did we get what you taught in this workshop.  You are so sharing!  I wasn't really excited about watercolor until I saw how you used color."       D. Bauer
Wyoming . . . "Terriffic workshop.  Very well organized and thought out with many techniques for organizing your thoughts and emotions into a forceful statement.  She shows you how to spend more of your time creating successful paintings and less time trying to bail out problems.  Though this was a design workshop, there were numerous color and painting procedure tips.  Highly recommend it for the competitive artist or one who really just wants to be a better painter."     B. Kelley
Missouri . . . "Thank you for inspiring all of our group.  Your personality
and talent are wonderful gifts to share!.   V. Whigam  &  M. Rohrbach
Kansas . . . "I took your color class and bought two of your color wheels.  I keep one at work (I work in the advertising department) and I keep one in my studio.  They're getting a little dog-eared but I know where I can get more."      D. Thomas
Wyoming . . . "Thanks for the best, most understandable watercolor workshop we've had in many years - sure enjoyed it and am consolidating my notes to refresh my old memory.   PS.  Thought of hand-outs for hard-of-learning? - couldn't write fast enough.    PPS.  We love ya!"
