In 2007 she also became a Studio Home Dimensions clay Instructor. Although she studied art in college it wasn't until on maternity leave with her son Trapper that she flipped the channel to OPB and saw Donna Dewberry for the first time. Donna, the creator of the One Stroke technique, was mesmerizing. She explained that it was an easy technique for people to learn regardless of prior experience.
Denise thoroughly enjoys teaching and looks forward to meeting new people in her classes. |

Photography |
In 2005 a friend recommended her to a couple looking for a good but affordable wedding photographer. When her friend was asked why she recommended Denise she simply stated, “ Denise’s amateur photos of my wedding were better than my professional photographers!” Her friends words prompted Denise to change her status to professional.
