Lesson Discussion

  3. Matt….
    What an informative course! I loved it! Everything is so very well written, explained and organized. This course has filled in many gaps in knowledge that I had. I just LOVE these
    lessons! Thank you…

  5. Thank you for showing portrait drawing in a very simple way Matt. I was actually able to visualize the arm and hand movements, and also was able to learn the different pressures you used on the pencils. I will start working drawing portraits very soon. Thanks to this course, I am not as intimidated as before I started watching it.

  6. Thank you so much for this course. Learned a lot of techniques that will definitely improve my portrait drawings. I love your step by step approach and how you explain the process of what you are doing. I tried to take the quiz at the end, but when I clicked on
    “Take the Quiz” it didn’t bring up the questions. Did that 2 times and nothing. Anyway, I learned a lot. Thanks again!

    • Hi Linda,

      Thanks so much for your comments. I just took a look at the quiz and it appears to be working normally. What browser are you using?

  7. Hi Matt,
    My apologies for delayed response. I hadn’t logged in for a few weeks. I’m using Chrome. I will try again. If problem persists will try a different browser. Thank you.

  9. Thank you! I did a portrait of my husbaqnd based on a sixty-five year old husband taken when he was a young school boy in England. Think it’s pretty good. i will practice!

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.

  13. 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!
