My Students

These are some of the students from one of the classes I teach.  They are very accomplished.  I think I could put them up against most any painters around.  They weren’t always that way.  They lacked confidence when they started, but I have tried to teach them the techniques I have found that help me in my own work.  I want them to paint what they see, not what they think they see.  They look for shapes and values rather than trying to paint the whole object at a time.  I’m very proud of these people and the others not pictured.  I have seen many of them become very accomplished and award winning artists.
