TESTIMONIALS

“I also ordered your Portraits from Life DVD, which I watched today. You are an amazing artist as well as teacher.  Your ability to fully explain exactly what you are doing as you are doing it shows how relaxed and capable you are both as an artist and a teacher…. Your way of softening edges, expressing a slightly harder edge in the areas you wish to draw attention to. I especially liked the limited palette in day one; so orderly and a way to built without confusion.”

Sharon Trainor, Colorado

 

“I am finding this course so useful. I have learned more in just one of your classes than I learned in I a 6 week evening class at my local college.”

Craftsy Drawing Essentials student Liz,

 

“Hi! Patricia. I just finished your wonderful drawing class and let me tell you that I’ve been taking classes for years and learned a lot with your 10 Essential Techniques for Better Drawing than I ever imagined. You’re a great artist and an amazing and knowledgeable teacher. I truly enjoyed your class and highly recommend it to anyone interested in drawing. My drawing skills have improved dramatically after this class.”

Betty Diesner, British Columbia
