He is able to break almost every complex art related task down into reachable step-by-step exercises. It may seem formulaic at first, but that approach worked to quickly facilitate for me a solid understanding of perspective, figure drawing, portrait painting, and even sculpture. His critiques can seem brutally honest, but that’s an asset which also helped stimulate some rapid artistic growth for me.

I could leave a novel length review regarding how good my experience was with my first round of sessions were with Alfredo. I had absolutely no experience painting with oils prior to my classes. As our sessions went on, Alfredo created snd altered my class structure to accommodate what I needed. He didn't just teach me how to put oils on a canvas, but explained the importance of everything from the care and cleaning of your brushes, materials he recommended all the way to explaining color theory, sketching and more. He has played an integral role in me using art and painting to finding peace and putting smiles on my face. I cant wait to see my progress in our next round of sessions. Not only is Alfredo a great instructor, but hes my mentor and my friend. Hes helped a U.S. Marine Combat Veteran find a way to push an illness aside and use art to be happy. I hope I'm able to attach my paintings below. One is my very first completed painting and one about to be completed, and could not look anything like they do with Alfredo's guidance. They are pieces painted prior from other artists.

He is fantastic! Works well with you and is super encouraging. I can’t wait to see how my art progresses with his instruction.

I did not actually have a session with Marina but she was gracious enough to talk to me on the phone about various options I might have for creating the illustrations for a book I am working on. Anyone wanting a very qualified and talented instructor should contact her. I am only now beginning the conceptualization of my book and it will be awhile before I can visualize the kinds of illustrations I need. Thank you to Lessons.com for connecting me to Marina.

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Machiko! Not only is she a very talented and natural musician, but she is also an inspiring and amazing teacher. My 10 yr old daughter always looked forward to lessons with Machiko, she felt supported, encouraged and challenged all at the same time!

I am a kindergarten teacher and we loved Suzanne‘s art lessons. She teaches to your grade level and she is wonderful. Our projects that we have done with her are step-by-step and turn out wonderful. The kids learn from each piece of art work that we have done. Once we did a butterfly lifecycle painting and crayon resist.
