all talk no learning
By Bobby Aquitania
Not a very good class, misleading information, very very basic.
By Viola Pando
This was fundamentals of art and not digital art. I want to learn about Corel, not art.
By Terry D McLeod
Still reviewing the course
By Brian Murillo
Hes not using a stylus. How can this be taken seriously? Similarly, with such low quality, how could this actually be Corel proper? I'm not impressed at all.
By douglas B Adams
so far to be far I bought this coarse to learn how to use painter 16.I cannot justify the use of the money to have bought .I feel ashamed that more monies have been wasted in this pursuit I should give up.Well done
By James Brewer
Ideas not fully expressed. Much too brief, too sketchy.
By Frederick F Meller
This instructor is AWESOME. He talk of Latin roots, Evolution, and EVEN Sumarian Roots. I talk these concepts and no one gets me. Art and Design DO have words because we are human and have always thought and cultivated in these ways. This is going to be FUN.
By Bill Wright
Great communication and wonderful light on a subject that isn't necessarily appreciated by lay people (like me).
By Jacqueline Flanigan
Interesting and slowly educating me on using the drawing software.
By Barry Froisland
Very clear in description of his lessons. I liked the use of lighting to make the lettering pop.
By Johan Harnesk
