I finally stopped overworking! This course helped me focus on bold shapes and not needing to paint every detail in sight. Loved the loose yet reliable, structured approach.

I’ve always been intimidated by city scenes, but Patti broke it down so simply. The corner shop was the perfect subject to practice on.

This was such a refreshing change from painting still lifes. I felt like I was capturing real atmosphere, not just copying a my setup without a plan in place. I'll return to this again and again, whenever I need to refresh my process and what I've learned.
