What people are saying…
“This course of yours means more to me than I can say. It’s THE solution to every challenge I’ve faced with learning to draw. Every frustration I’ve experienced with local in-person courses I’ve taken is resolved with your format. Every question answered, every confusion clarified. You’ve done a MAGNIFICENT job. All that, and you’ve made it FUN! So thank you thank you thank you!”
“Thank you so much for your amazing videos. Gosh, you are an amazing teacher. You pack so much information in such a bite-sized video, that too in such an entertaining way, it’s fantastic. Clearly TONS of effort have gone into making the videos. “
“Thank you so much for making these videos. I don’t know if you realize this, but you’re bringing a ton of joy to a small army of people all over the place.”
“Since I was about 12 years old (I am now 24) I have been studying, collecting, analyzing, researching, and appreciating art in all its forms. I have a harddrive with literally tens of thousands of pieces of artwork that have spoken to me in one form or another. Yet in all this time, I lacked the courage to create the artwork that I see in my mind. I’ve always felt paralyzed, and when I found your videos with the beautiful and seemingly effortless style I anticipated that I would feel the same. Instead I was given a humorous, approachable coach who wanted to teach without dumbing anything down. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it. I realized I could trust you, and you managed to do what no other artist has done in the past decade of my admiring them, and that is to pick up a pencil and get to work. This message may only take a few minutes to read, but I want to express my gratitude for the impact you have had on a person that you have never met.”
