I am just writing in to tell you how much I am enjoying the course!! I have been handling watercolors since I was in school and had even attended an year of art school, but what I have learned in just the first three issues has been incredible!!! I suddenly realized that my approach to handling watercolors was so wrong. I have been practicing all your exercises (havn't been able to put my brush down for the past 4 hrs) and am already feeling more confident. Your course beats any book on watercolor hands down. Thank you so very much!!! Sophia Philip

Just a note to say thank you for the wonderful gift and joy that doing the painting course has given me. I meet up with another of your clients every Monday and we paint together. This helps us both. I will no doubt do another course. Ann Dyson

I think your course is wonderful and you do such a great job of explaining everything. Thank you for the course. Sandra Crompton, USA

I started lesson four this morning and am having so much fun working with the colors. Once again, I just can't say enough good things about this course! Nothing else has explained color mixing and concepts the way this does. Lee

I have at least four watercolour books on my shelf but up till now hadn't painted a single picture. After only 3 lessons with Andy I am motivated & can't wait to get to my paint box every day! Maggie (France)

I have just recently discovered the Learn To Do Watercolor course. I am so excited by my progress after just a couple of lessons. Little details that others forgot to mention that have made all the difference in the world (learning to get some control over the paint itself for one). I am from Texas, USA and am fairly new to watercolors, and returning to art as a creative outlet after many, many years.
Andy, just want to praise you on the great job you did putting this together! Very organized, very easy to understand and follow. And I am so excited about the reference notebook I will have when all is said and done. I also ordered the Watercolor Pencils course and am working on it while waiting for watercolors to dry. Can't wait to get a chance to do the acrylics and drawing courses, as well as any other courses you create! Lee

I am still excited by the course. I think it's so much fun having a lesson come every 2 weeks. If I had a book of the same lessons, all at once, I most likely would NOT work through the book. How nice technology can be! Marian Drake USA

 When I started the course I sent you an email saying that I hoped your course will both give me the incentive I need and teach me things I’ve either forgotten or never knew. Well, it’s done exactly that, many thanks. Your course has given me my confidence back. In the past my paintings were almost exclusively landscapes but I was scared of including people and animals. No longer. Also I would never have really considered flower painting. Yet now, thanks to you, I’m enjoying it. Robin Guenier

 I am thoroughly enjoying this course and think it's an excellent way to learn. And great value, too! The written material combined with the audio and video is like attending a class, but I always have the opportunity to 'replay' -- something I couldn't do by attending an in-person course. Thanks for a valuable program. Patricia Steever,USA

 I have to write and say how much I'm enjoying the watercolour course. I've always wanted to paint and this course is helping and  encouraging me so much, its great fun. J. Gardner UK

 I just wanted to let you know how much I am appreciating the course. The various items you have selected for instruction are  simply perfect. Thank you for your lessons. I more than appreciate them. Ted Beardsley (Founder of New York Plein Air Painters)

I love this course.  I got started with your free lesson at About.com, painting reflections of a windmill.  What a great amount of FUN!!!! I had been trying to find out how to paint water for a whole year, and now I've got several skills that I learned from you on water. Marian

 Just started the watercolor class. I think it is great and I really appreciate the video clips.  This is a great watercolor class. I can already see that just from the first few lessons. I am glad I took the plunge to join in. I was skeptical at first but told myself, "well, you've wasted money on other things." This was a great investment. Peggy

I have to tell you how much I enjoyed creating the colour charts. Although in my subconscious mind, I was aware that the primary colors had potential to create other vibrant colors, but after having done this exercise, I was truly amazed. Now I constantly refer to the chart to mix even better hues. The eight square boxes is another excellent exercise. I couldn't get the colors right each time, but I could see improvement in each box as I went along. Thanks again for creating such a wonderful course. I must compliment you on the creation of the forum and the regular competitions. I feel it's a great incentive for budding artists. Do keep up the great work. Sophia Philip

Thank you for the wonderful past year of painting instruction. I am continually amazed at the progress that I've made working with you. It is a wonderful study program and so now I will move on and look forward to many years of enjoyment in my art. David Gleeson Canada

 I have greatly enjoyed your watercolour course and I am so sorry I am coming to the end. The lessons you have taught were very helpful. I like the way you covered such a wide variety of subjects. The thing I found most useful were the video clips of the different techniques. I have many books on watercolour painting but I wasn’t able to reproduce the techniques until I actually saw in the videos how it was done.  Brenda Scott UK

 I am thoroughly enjoying the course, and though there are a lot of things I have done before, nevertheless, they are described in such a way that they become easier. I also like your explanations of what might have gone wrong, and I have learned more from that than I could have been taught in a 100 books. The course is also interesting, which helps motivation hugely. Gail Seery, USA

Andy, thank you so much for the tips on perspective and how to get it right when the VP is a long way off the paper.
I struggled and struggled on this when painting the barn and house. The photo just didn't tell the story. So my painting was a little weird. Thank you!!!! I get it now. Marta Cappa

Fantastic course - I have learnt so much Janet Leveson
