What Deanna's Students have to say
What Deanna's Students have to say
Just shadowing Deanna for a session completely elevated my application/composition game. You really can’t afford not to invest in this!
Deanna’s seminar completely transformed the way I look at art and my approach to tattooing. All of her techniques I have implemented into my work and the experience of this seminar continues to inspire me daily
Deanna’s seminar was so worth it! She perfectly translated her oil painting skills into tattooing. An amazing mentor—I learned so much and can’t wait for her next one!
I left with a new flame of inspiration lit within me. Being able to have her go over theory and explain her techniques bridged so many gaps I didn’t even know I was missing. I’ve already seen improvements in my art and my tattoos. This was beyond worth it in so many ways.
