My skills as an artist have grown significantly as a result of Shane’s classes. He creates a very encouraging, supportive and collaborative environment in his classes, helping artist stretch their skills, grow and take risks in their artwork. I can’t say enough good things about Shane who is a very talented artist in his own right. Shane is a wonderful teacher, very generous in sharing his knowledge and techniques to help other artists grow and improve. I highly recommend Shane McDonald as a teacher and as an artist. You will be so glad you found Shane and feel fortunate to learn from him.

The drawing class taught by Shannon Meadows has several exercises and practice opportunities that have helped my drawing skills significantly, especially with drawing faces. Shannon was prepared to teach class, very knowledgeable, and made the class fun as well. Her lessons are based on art school concepts along with Shannon’s significant abilities as an artist. I would recommend this class.
