Student Feedback
“I think your oil painting basics class was great!! I felt like your teaching process was really easy for me to connect with, including the computer access and the way you delivered information. If I had to change something, maybe, I’d make it three hours instead of four hours, but that’s arguable because it might not have allowed for conversations. Also, I really appreciate how you are coaching us along. That’s such a wonderful benefit and seems to be very unique to your teaching process.
I would highly recommend your class to anyone wanting to learn about oil painting. You were able to answer a lot of questions about technique and safety. I appreciate how you are able to establish a safe, non-intimidating space to learn new concepts. I also appreciate that I learned a lot without ever feeling overwhelmed.
Thank you so much for the time, thought, and attention that you put into making and teaching this course.”
