Natalie, I love your art!!! Thank you for giving me such encouraging feedback!!!
Hi Natalie, my name is Milan. I have just enrolled in your Old Masters Academy course and i am a member of Anatomy Master Class, and i will be enrolling in Drawing Academy in a few short days. I have bought your e-zine books as well and i know i will receive terrific and invaluable information and instruction in your programs. My question is, should i focus my time on drawing only, for about four years, before i move into color or should i work on both skills at the same time. Your feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for offering your valuable knowledge, experience, insight and time for such a low cost.
Natalie, I’d like to thank you for filling my days with happiness. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
Theo, your student : )
