  • Evegamine is always the perfect host and the perfect model with the perfect costumes, and the perfect attitude. The venue is pretty nice too.
  • The course instructor was excellent. He met students at their level and pace. I appreciated the simple tweaks that he offered to improve my drawing and rendering. He was approachable and helpful. I felt comfortable asking questions. Ultimately, this was a great course for both beginner and advanced students.
  • Linda is wonderful…her studio is great. And, I learned so much!
  • Instructorr was excellent. Covered main points and used constructive criticism. Very helpful.
  • I enjoy the opportunity to sketch the live models. The models are interesting looking and the poses are a good place to learn about body structure. Fun
  • Animal Portrait Drawing on Zoom

    The teacher was very clear and easy to follow. I was late to sign on as the link was in junk email and she was very kind when I was late. It was a pleasure take a class from this teacher.
  • Great exercise. Limber, professional model
  • Drawing - NOW ONLINE Instructed Open Studio

    Loved the class! Learned lots about drawing and watercolour and oil!
  • Good model well run and friendly vibe. Great value
  • Very good!
  • Drawing - NOW ONLINE Instructed Open Studio

    It was a delightful experience and i thoroughly enjoyed it. The teacher was awesome! Really felt like I was in the classroom with all the others and it was fun learning where everyone was from. I am a total beginner at watercolor, although I have been drawing for quite awhile. He was very patient and has a wonderful kind manner of teaching that makes you feel like you may actually be able to do this. Great course!
  • All the kinks are worked out - great course!
  • Beginning Drawing Foundations

    This class is really enjoyable, therapeutic & creative. William Neukomm, the teacher, was really intuitive & gave wonderful guidance. He manages to create a safe, warm inviting creative space for anyone who hasn't faced a drawing pad in years!
  • I loved it and definitely want to come back!
  • Beginning Drawing Foundations

    Laura did a great demo for the still life class. I learned a lot from it.
  • This was the most amazing experience! I’ve been looking for an art class for years and never found one that “fit” until now! Although I have been drawing for several years, I’ve never taken a drawing class. This class starts at the most fundamental level, which is what I’d been hoping to find. The instructor is also amazing and it was so cool to see what other students are creating! The ambiance in the classroom was also perfect for creativity!
  • Mr. George Evans is a true treasure who takes an open approach to expressing art to the novice. He's encouraging but will still give professional feedback. Looking forward to taking another class very soon.
  • It was a perfect setting, great organizer and fantastic model. Forgot to mention - nice people and good music.
  • I really enjoyed the way the instructor walked us through two drawing projects - one in graphite and one in oil pastels - every session, so we could really experience the two different styles of drawing. It was great fun, and introduced me to all different aspects of drawing I had never tried before. I highly recommend this class!
  • This class was not what I was expecting because I thought we were going to be learning to use graphite sticks. To my surprise, all materials were provided, and it was actually a very basic beginners class in graphite pencil drawing that taught me some very valuable skills and history. I have been drawing my whole life and have taken many art classes, but these techniques were still new to me and very useful in improving my drawing skills. It went by fast, but I had a wonderful time.
  • Was fun I would take it again.
  • I will definitely take more of the Gallery Girls classes and attend other events hosted by them it was an excellent class. And a great way to spend a Sunday. -Arlisha Anderson
  • Fantastic!
  • David was great! He's a very impressive teacher and I highly recommend taking the class if you're interesting in learning more about graphic storytelling. He is incredibly friendly and very helpful when it comes to answering questions and giving insight into his process. Thank you!
  • I loved my afternoon exploring "Drawing with Graphite". Great teacher, great information, great environment. They were kind, helpful, and reached out to check in on me when I was running late which I really appreciated. I look forward to returning for more - art classes and other classes! Thanks!
  • My children started this course over a year ago. Linda listens and explains everything in detail and encourages these creative minds to keep exploring. If you’re thinking to take this class, do so. You’ll be greatly rewarded.
  • The instructor is amaxing, he's so encouraging and helpful. Aldo his method and techniques are very useful. I learned alot from him
  • If a person wants to find an art class that provides the instruction that helps you become a better artist, this is the one. I have taken other classes but none compare to my present instructors. I feel fortunate to have found them!
  • Stencil Design

    Kelsey was wonderful and Noah had an excellent experience overall.
  • I had a great time in class. Our teacher was super enthusiastic and passionate about teaching. I'm happy and grateful to be able to take this course especially since lettering classes are usually in the morning during the weekday when I work. We had plenty of time in class to practice and get one on one help. I highly recommend this course.
