Student Testimonials:
"Nicole is an excellent teacher and a gifted artist. I really liked her
fun, easy approach to painting with oils. Before we started painting,
she gave a concise but important lesson on the basics. She went over
the color wheel and atmospheric perspective (the hazy background you get
when objects are far away) and had handouts for me to keep. She also
had landscape samples that I could choose from to start my painting.
She gave me a succinct lesson on color mixing with oils: what to use
(turpenoid, linseed oil or olive oil), why you use them, and how to mix
on the palette. I especially liked how she kept the color pallet basic
(yellows, blues, red, brown, black, white), but how I can make pretty
much any color using a simple color wheel and mixing using
experimentation. She went over what different kinds of brushes are good
for laying down paint and creating different effects. Her abstract
approach made it easy to create a simple outline for my painting. She
showed me some tricks of how easy it is to remove color and even create
some cool effects with the turpenoid. Her non-technical, fun, easy
method to putting paint on the canvas made the whole process less
daunting to a casual artist and inspired me to go for it! Many blessings to you!" -Andrea
