Classes on Computer Arts and Crafts

by Janet Ashford

Since 2000 I've been teaching classes in Computer Arts at the Mendocino Art Center. I greatly enjoy teaching and sharing what I've learned about Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, Adobe Illustrator, and computer crafts.

Contact me at jashford@jashford.com or call 707/937-4555 if you'd like to arrange a class or workshop for your group, conference, school, art center or community center.
