It took me some time to make the decision to enroll to the portrait course of drawing. I am so glad I did! I loved it, thanks, Matt!

Hi Matt,
I am a 71 year old gramma living on the southern outer banks of North Carolina. I have taken a few of your graphite courses and I really appreciate your teaching style. I am so excited to discover I can draw and can’t wait to improve more and more. I’m planning to eventually move on to charcoal, colored pencils etc. I can’t thank you enough for providing a place for me to be creative and succeed in doing it.

Thank you so very much for showing me what is important in my journey with drawing portraits and art in general. The knowledge I gained through this course is beyond anything I could have imagined. You are truly gifted as a teacher and your focus on excellence through knowing the important basic elements of art are key to anyone’s success. You are a good, giving person. You don’t hold anything back from us.
I can’t wait to apply what I have learned from you. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Thank you so much for making this course. You have given me a new set of tools to create some great artwork. The toned paper and white charcoal are new for me but I love how it turns out on the paper. This course is definitely worth the time and money.

Thank you so much for this course. Can’t wait to get toned paper to begin the process and white charcoal pencil. I am so excited how it will turn out.

Really love your courses. My drawing has improved quite a bit since I started your classes a month ago, but for some reason can’t seem to warm up to grid drawing, its too binding for me. Hope I’m making sense. Thank you.
