"When you walk into Dimitrios' show room it's just amazing, his work is fantastic! I want to carve like that some day. I am young just as he was when he first began, I believe with lots of time, practice and Dimitrios' teaching, I will."

"He does not hesitate to impart his knowledge, time and talent to his students. It is no wonder that carvers travel thousands of miles in order to seek his help which he is so willing to give. It is absolutely true when he says 'His time is your time.'"

"Studying woodcarving with Dimitrios Klitsas is a rare chance not only to work with an artist operating at the highest level in his field, but also to connect with a tradition that encompasses styles from ancient times to the present."
Timothy Brennan
New Paltz, NY
"Beginner and expert alike find these wood carving classes rich and rewarding, limited only by the student's own efforts and willingness to learn. Even sketching and drawing skills will improve. There does not seem to be a better method for acquiring good carving skills than by using old fashioned apprenticeship procedures."
Arthur K. Peters
Gainesville, FL
"For anyone interested in learning the art and discipline of fine wood carving, Dimitrios is both an excellent teacher and creative artist. He is a thoughtful, encouraging instructor focused on developing the potential in each of his students."
