FAQs

If your anything like me, you might have tons of paid for courses sitting around, waiting to watched. I prefer to give students the best possible means to succeed, and there is a lot of value in live classes as they give you the accountability and space to practice, ask questions and challenge yourself distinctly different from courses you could watch later. Plus it’s fun and a nice activity to do on a Saturday.
Monthly challenges might include: portrait using complementary color scheme, a celebrity portrait, or Dia De Los Muertos-inspired portraits for example.
The class is live on Saturdays @ 11AM EST. If you can’t make it you can always rewatch and follow along to the recordings later.
We will be using real photos, royalty-free of people or stock photos from my stock provider sites.
