Denise is the best art teacher! She is very encouraging and very helpful. Even the least interested art student will learn a great deal. If you're not really interested in Art, but simply need to fullfill a degree requirement, I would suggest NOT taking ART I, but instead taking Design I with Denise. She is the best!!!

This is one of the sweetest teachers ever! Everything is explained and laid out, you work at your pace. She gives such great feedback, she responds fast, and you can tell she enjoys what she does. The class is time-consuming but she is very organized and is always clear on instructions. Great teacher and class!

I love love love this professor! I am not very good at art, therefore when I took this class I was very nervous. Although, after every assignment she made me feel like an artist. She responds very fast to emails and grades right away. Extra credit is available every week, I really enjoyed every assignment given by her.

Perhaps the sweetest professor I've had so far. Gives plenty of extra credit. Reads/analyzes your work to show that she reviewed your submissions. She was amazing. Not too many assignments but keep up with due dates as they are different. This class was doable. I recommend her! I'll miss her :(

The only thing I didn't enjoy was you NEED the textbook because you'll do a lot of InQuizzitives as your weekly assignments, BUT the exams are basically straight out of the textbook "ctrl F" the art in question, you'll do fine.
