ROUND ROCK, TX - February 26, 2005 - Professional and experienced
artists from Canada, the United States, England and Africa have teamed
with renowned artist Merri (Cathy Deutsch Friesenhahn) to provide
online workshops designed to train aspiring art students.

Being confined to a wheelchair, due to a childhood bout with polio,
has never kept Merri from following her dreams as an artist. It has,
however, been the basis for her successful online business, which
allows her to sell her masterpieces directly from her home and studio.

Through her website, people from around the world now enjoy the beauty
and uniqueness of Merri's art with just the click of a mouse.

Merri has also taught art lessons for the Parks and Recreation Center
and YMCA of Round Rock, Texas. Merri's teaching and artistic
experience, along with the wisdom of nine other artists (professional
and self-taught) from around the world, is exhibited in her online art
training workshops.

The internet unlocks the door of opportunity for learning art skills
like never before. Now, an art student from the United States is able
to glean knowledge and skills from an artist in Africa, combining
cultural and philosophical experiences as well as basic art
techniques.

Merri's art training website enables this one-of-a-kind learning
experience to take place in a friendly, hassle-free online
environment. The workshops are live and interactive.
