Exactly what I was looking for. Anthony is a very good teacher too. Thanks! -
Portrait Drawing with Colored Pencil
I am always happy with class at the Y. This was particularly rewarding because, very small , 5 students. I learned a lot about color & was encouraged to develop shades of various colors from the primary colors & then learned about all the color pencils & how to apply them. Ie. The old masters pallet. We had demos. To demonstrate Application of color to portraits . Also worked on portraits. As usual we had an excellent model & one can’t do a good portrait without a good model. Nancy J. is a hands on teacher who try’s to give you space to develop style BUT ( you better get those measurements correct) All done with patience from a teacher who has tremendous talent. Love workshops ! Would like more of them. Would also like pay for the day ! I can’t always be in NY . But would love to attend a class when there. -
Painting (All Levels)
Leo, the instructor, is world class! If you’re looking for excellent instruction, this class is for you! There are a few tips that will help you prepare for the class: - Be realistic. You may or may not actually get to paint. Everyone starts off by spending several classes drawing with pencil. The instructor decides when you’re ready to graduate to paint (which, if you’re not great at drawing, may be never!) - The materials list on Course horse is incorrect!!!! Don’t go out and spend $150 on painting supplies like I did! You won’t use any of them! - Be proactive! Don’t expect the school to reach out to you. Email the school directly to request a materials. The school will eventually send emails, but it’ll sometimes be just hours before your class. -

I loved the class with Allison. At each class (I've taken two), I learn something new about how I see and how I express what I see. -

It was so great! I am so happy I attended and look forward to other art classes offered on CourseHorse. The teacher, Allison, couldn't have been more knowledgeable and supportive and Simon and his assistant, Michael, were wonderful as well.
