Student Testimonials:
This is the third course I’ve taken from Betsy Dillard Stroud. She’s an excellent teacher, and her critiques are always a big help to me. In this particular course, Painting Abstraction, I was very happy to see the videos included. It made a big difference to be able to ‘see’ what she was talking about, rather than just reading the ‘how-to-do-it’ instructions. The videos were very well done and I could easily see and understand her demos and instructions. ~ Bee T.
Betsy Dillard Stroud is a delight to have as an instructor. She is knowledgeable about art techniques and she is very helpful with her students. I would take any course she offered again. ~ Lucy T.
I really enjoyed the course and thought Betsy a great teacher and well prepared. The topics were very useful to advance a novice painter and easy to follow. I did learn a lot which I am looking forward to using in future paintings. Thank you for that. I did find that some of the products used were not listed in the original list of materials which had me going on a bit of a search, not living close to any art shops. One product used was not available in Canada. ~ Victoria T.
