It gives me a nice outline to practice my skills, and the course structure and the deadlines enforce discipline, which I like. The words of encouragement along the way are also very helpful and keep me motivated.<br><br> I liked the exercises for the grid method, because that method is something I was struggling with in the past. A friend taught it to me many years ago, but I never got my images as close to the copied picture as he did. But now I'm much better already. ;)<br><br> My intention is to get my drawing skills up to a professional level, and I think this course is a good start to get me there. </blockquote> <p><strong>Sardo</strong></p> <blockquote>My experiences with my instructor, Tannis Trydal, have been outstanding! She has anticipated my artistic needs even before I have expressed them to her. My confidence level has been growing by leaps and bounds. It feels as if the Draw and Paint in Your Pyjamas course was written specifically for me and all my artistic needs. My best friend tells me that I have been so much happier.</blockquote> <p><strong>Susan Calhoun – USA</strong></p> <blockquote> Tannis Trydal has been my tutor and guide through the "Complete Drawing and Painting Certificate Course". I have known Tannis for several years and worked with her though the "Artists North" painting group in Grande Prairie Alberta Canada. Tannis introduced me to this course and I was able to complete it with her guidance. Tannis is most knowledgeable and helpful as she herself is an accomplished artist. <br><br> The "Complete Drawing and Painting Certificate Course" is an on-line course which Tannis offered to our Grande Prairie club. Tannis' help and encouragement was always just a computer away. Any email submitted was responded to within thirty-six hours. Her advice "Try and fail....then try again" proved to be what I needed to hear to encourage me to carry on. Sometimes with unlimited patience and understanding she pulled me through the low stages of my growth in the art world. Tannis' tutoring skills are reflected in her deep caring attitude and love of people and art. The "Complete Drawing and Painting Certificate Course" proved to be a fantastic journey with her as my guide.</blockquote> <p><strong>Respectfully submitted,<br> Pauline Freed</strong></p></div> <div
