"This was a great synopsis on composition and the instructor touched on all the important things to keep in mind when composing your artwork. Just the right level of detail, lively and engaging..great course Mandar!."
Stephen Johnson
"The instructor gives clear, concise, useful information. Lessons are well organized and include helpful examples."
Cindy Nagel
"He used a well organized approach with very useful examples. I came away with a better understanding of eye movement around a painting because he didn't overwhelm me with unnecessary detail. I still have questions about eye movement in paintings that don't so clearly illustrate his points. Would like to see some examples of paintings that less clearly illustrate his points but that would require an additional segment following his clear points. THANKS SO MUCH!!!"
