Letter from our protégés!
April 23, 2000
Roger, Thanks so much for the great class on the Venetian Plaster finishes.  I already have a bunch of clients interested in the finish for their own home and I just took the class last week.  The class was very informative and you are a great teacher.  Please let me know when you are going to offer other classes.
Thanks again,

Dear Roger:
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the enjoyable experience I had recently in your workshop learning about Venetian plastering.  It just goes to show that we can all learn something new regardless of our age or experience.

I would highly recommend this class to anyone interested in authentic historic wall finishes.  It is a must for any artist or designer in the profession.

I look forward to seeing you again in the near future.
Sincerely,

Dear Roger:

I just wanted to thank you for such a great time yesterday at your "Venetian Plaster Workshop".  Not only was the class fun, you made it very easy to learn.  I must admit that the Marmorino finish is my favorite!  Especially the 'skip-trowel' technique.

You have got to be not only the most patient man I have ever met, but the most easy going as well!  The day felt like just another "get-together of friends".

Please keep me informed of future classes, as I always look forward to learning new things!

Thanks again,

Hello Roger:
I want to take a moment to "Thank You" for a great class.  You are indeed a very knowledgeable and thorough instructor.  I walked away feeling very confident and inspired by you.
I will definitely recommend taking your classes to anyone who is interested.  That was truly one of the most rewarding classes I have, taken, and I have taken many classes.
Thanks again!

Dear Roger:
I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how much I enjoyed your class.
It was professional and extremely informative.  I got more from your class than months of on the job training.
Thank you for the experience.
