Ana Sofia met us at the entrance and everything was ready for the team to start painting. She had stencils and some examples of designs we could use, paint, paintbrushes, and pencils. She explained how to get started and we were painting within minutes. At the end of the class she gave a brief lecture about tile history and the types of designs we painted in the class. Ana Sofia was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. I liked the class, and more importantly, all my coworkers liked it to. They said that they had a great time.
