Sonah M. says, "What Andres a great teacher is that he listens to his students carefully. He is excellent at teaching values, colors, temperature, edges, and drawing. He teaches how to compose pictures and sets up still life arrangements with great detail. His explanations are easy to understand, and he snakes even complex concepts simple and does so quite effectively. He responds to questions promptly, always keeps his promises, and engages with his students rather than teaching in a one-way manner. He is very patient and demonstrates painting and drawing techniques, offering a wide variety of methods. I highly recommend him at any level. He can meet you at your level and make you grow."

Kim G. says, "Alfredo is one of the most prodigious and skilled artists I have ever met. He makes his personal skills easy to understand and communicate and the way I have grown as an artist in the past 3 years with him is beyond anything I ever expected of myself, let alone something I ever expected an artist to be able to communicate to another person as a teachable skill. If you’re on the fence about hiring him, please do yourself a favor and do it!" Read more

Teaching the fundamentals of painting and watching students enjoy discovering things for the first time and applying them to their own work.
Helping people express themselves out side of a computer is very important in a computerized world! Using your hands and your brain to do things and accomplish art is very satisfying and has nothing to do with the digital world we are now faced to live in. I try to give people a more natural approach and emphasize what they want out of painting pictures!...

Jane H. says, "Once in a while, if we are very lucky, a truly gifted, inspirational teacher enters our life. For me that teacher is Shannon Green.
I was working in photography for many years, but had a real longing to explore painting. I signed up for a class that Shannon was teaching at LACMA and instinctively knew that I wanted to explore studying painting with him privately. That has has turned out to be a great choice.
I have had the pleasure of working with him for well over a year now. My very first lesson told me that I was in the right hands to learn about and experience making art. We work in my home for 2 hours most weeks. Shannon came in the very first day we met, completely equipped with all we would need to begin - a beginning collection of water based oil paints, palette, brushes, color wheel, brush cleaner, canvas, the works and we were off and running.
He began by introducing me to all of these tools and then laying down the principles of color and color mixing and the various techniques for applying paint. I still consider myself to be pretty much a small notch above a beginner, but I am excited and inspired to keep, as Shannon often suggests, “putting paint where it ain’t” Since then I have gone on to, with his guidance, finish several paintings. Each attempt on my part would lay the ground work for another principle that he would then teach me - composition, perspective, light, shadow, the unique properties of different tubes of paint.
Along the way, I have learned a great deal from Shannon about the history of art, various styles of painting, and on and on.
He has a long history to draw upon not only as an artist in his own right, but in teaching privately, in museum settings, and in classrooms with students of all ages. This all in addition to his own artistic expression.
Shannon has a wonderful way of leading and following at the same time. He will always intuit where I am trying to go. I never ever feel judged and never experience any false compliments. This allows me to trust him and feel free to ask questions that he may have answered before, but slipped my mind.
For a really wonderful adventure into the world of painting, I wholeheartedly recommend master teacher Shannon Green." Read more

painting is something I discovered in my darkest days. It gave me a freedom that I had never experienced. Whether it be a hobby or something you want to do professionally, I’m here to help you make your art truly yours. I learned very slowly and I hated learning anything except how to actually paint stuff. So, that’s how I teach. I get right to the fun stuff because that's what keeps art fun and inspirational. Everything else follows as you start learning more about your style and artistic ability. This helps you become your own kind of artist...

P P. says, "I've taken a few painting classes throughout my life, and can say without hesitation that Rod Smith is the best teacher I've ever had. During covid, I wanted to try a few art projects that I've put on the back burner for years, like learning how to paint a portrait. Right out of the gate, Rod taught me about color and the structure of faces, and provided me with a list of supplies and paints to buy. It was straightforward and exactly what I was looking for. Not only is he a great teacher, but he's an excellent resource on the history of art and was able to give me the names of painters and books to check out. I look forward to our next class!" Read more

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.
