    I’ve been scrapbooking now for many years and I wished I had followed this class long long ago! I’m not native english-speaking (as you may notice!) but Anna speaks clear and not to fast. I really LOVED the process of learning new skills and enjoy the results. Thank you, Anna.

  2. Jeanne (verified owner)

    Didn’t think I would be interested in doing flowers since I’ve only done a few in the past, but I was intrigued, so I signed up for the class. The lessons were very clear, and even though I am very experienced in Photoshop, I had never worked in this particular way. I only wish I had a little more time to devote right now, but I am squeezing in some Artsy Flowers time whenever I can. I highly recommend this class to any Photoshop lover. You will learn something new and have projects to work on in case you were wondering what to do next. Nothing like doing one of these flowers to really get “in the zone.” And it’s so fun to be in the Facebook group and see all the projects being done by fellow classmates. Great inspiration!

  3. Trish Hoskin (verified owner)

    Such a revolution in using Anna products. It just opens up a whole new way of using all of Anna’s existing kits to create your own style of flowers and in fact fruit or anything you can think of. Your imagination is your only limitation. It is a great class and easy to understand and learn as are all of Anna’s classes.

  4. Jana H (verified owner)

    I have always loved Anna’s artsy flowers and was intrigued to learn how to make some of my own. I was surprised at the techniques and found them so inspiring and fun! Anna gives very concise instructions through her videos and provides some of her beautiful art work to help you get started. I enjoyed this class and if you’re interested in making artsy flowers, you will too!

  5. Beverly (verified owner)

    When I discovered Anna’s unique products I fell in love with them, now she’s teaching us how to create our own Artsy Flowers, plus the techniques can also be used on fruit, or whatever you’re inspired to create! It’s just plain fun, and addictive. This is the sort of class that lets an artistically inclined person get as creative as they want to be…it’s a freeing and rewarding feeling to create this way, and Anna’s teachings include every step and detail you need from start-to-finish making ArtsyFlowers! Thank you very much Anna!

  6. Diane (verified owner)

    I have always admired Anna’s Multimedia Flowers, and feel very privileged to have learned how to create them in this class. I learned so much about how to manipulate brushes and textures to create anything I can simply draw/outline. The videos are excellently presented, and as a bonus a great stash of products are provided. Excellent class, I highly recommend.

  7. pam (verified owner)

    This course is amazing. I am just getting started and have learned so much already. There is an immense amount of brush manipulation techniques, explained in an easy-to-understand clear way. I think everyone will find this course valuable.. Anna ,thank you!! I am inspired!!!

  8. Dawn Thurston (verified owner)

    This is an excellent class. Anna demonstrated techniques she hasn’t shown us in prior classes, techniques that I think will translate well to other kinds of projects. I have taken nearly all of Anna’s classes since I “discovered” her a couple of years ago. Going into the class, I felt like I knew Photoshop and Anna’s work flow fairly well, but this class expanded my vision of what I can do with her products. The course is well organized and presented in a logical, thoughtful manner, one that even someone new to Anna’s classes could follow with ease.

  9. Ann

    Anna’s classes are unique and perfect for any digital artist that wants to learn about composition, design, blending and about how to master colors and techniques. I consider Anna a pioneer and trend setter of this generation of digital artists.
    There are no other classes that will be tailored as much as Anna’s classes are for the needs of those studious of digital transformations. Every class teach the novice or advanced student her own preparation and correction process for every digital creation, from beginning to end, she share as well the videos on mp4 files, and a generous set of materials for the student to use and multiple examples on each class. I will recommend her classes to all those that love the digital art, saying with confidence that those who take Anna’s classes will not be disappointed. Ann06

    I have been scrapbooking for just a few years now and I found this class to be so much fun. Anna made it easy to follow and each step built on what you learned in the previous steps. I highly recommend this class to anyone who loves digital scrapbooking and is looking for inspiration for their next project. Anna’s classes will do all that and make learning fun for you.

  11. nbriechle (verified owner)

    Such a unique course. I would never thought of doing anything like this. I’m anxious to try more flowers from my stash of photos as well as applying the technique using non flower objects. This will definitely stretch my creative mind.

    • Anna Aspnes

      Yes! Thank you for the review.

  12. kandi.boyer (verified owner)

    This was my first class and I loved it! Class was easy to follow and even though I’ve been using Photoshop for a few years, learned some new tricks. I also love that I can rewatch this whenever I want. Anna’s classes are always easy to follow along and I always learn something new.

  13. mollywoodphotos (verified owner)

    This was so far my favorite. I take a lot of flower pictures so I have so many to work with. I love creating artsy flowers

    • Anna Aspnes

      Awesome – I aim to please in my classes.

  14. Adriene (verified owner)

    what a great course, I learned a lot and now I even know how to create a shadow other than with a layer style, I always wondered how to do that but not anymore. I am very happy with this course

    • Anna Aspnes
