Store owner AnnaBelle Wrattan, her son Will and Tim Holtz. Will has taken classes from Tim for four years and attended Ranger U in New Jersey with Tim. Will is off to college soon for art and clothing design. Tim has been his role model and I can see why, he is a great artist, teacher and fun person.
