> We had Gijsbert “Nick” van Frankenhuyzen at our school a number of years back and he did a wonderful job with the students (yes, I have 2 hats and one is at an elementary school library). We had 4^th and 5^th graders at the time and they really enjoyed it.  I would highly recommend him for any presentation. He is a very nice person to work with as well.

> A free hands-on event at the Library of Michigan
> Geared towards children (but adults may join in) Gijsbert takes the group through a step by step process using circles, squares and triangles showing how easy it is to draw. Everyone goes home with 3 – 4 drawings and a real sense of accomplishment in their artist skills.
