“I never thought that the art I was already making would be considered art – to me it wasn’t good enough, didn’t look right, or wasn’t skilled enough. The TAPPs Program has shown me that I had it right the whole time – art is not about the final product, it’s about the journey you take to get there.”

“The Mandala course opened up a whole new and exciting world of imagery that symbolizes individuation and actualization of the Self (in a Jungian sense). In short, it was an epiphany!”
