Students praised the Painting in Watercolor - Level 1 class for its practicality and effective teaching style. They valued learning different techniques such as brush strokes, texture creation, color mixing, and basic composition. The instructor, Freddie, received significant commendation for his engaging, adaptable, and informational teaching approach, akin to Bob Ross, encouraging students to replicate his examples and become intuitive with the process. Students also appreciated that the course was amenable to different experience levels, allowing everyone to gain substantial knowledge and develop their painting skills. The students conveyed that they had tremendous fun and were excited to take the next level class. Overall, the class instilled confidence in students and opened a door for them into the world of watercolor painting. 1. "It was loose and casual but still instructive when it came to different brush/ texture techniques, color mixing, and a little bit of composition." 2. "He mainly paints and you learn by watching. He is constantly changing what he does and adapting which although frustrating to some, helps the student learn to 'go with the flow'." 3. "The course has been fun... this is a new experience and I have learned a lot about watercolor techniques and composition... Thank you for opening the door for me to welcome watercolor into my life."
