"I feel intimidated."
"I used to enjoy my art, now I want to again."
"I'm afraid to add people to my sketches."
"Where do I start?"

I hear you. And I know that my online Craftsy class--Sketching
the Energy of Places--can help you achieve your goals for creating lively
sketches of the places you live and travel.

My university students consistently tell me, "I learned more in your 2-hour online course than in a full
semester of your Urban Sketching class." That's because the creative production team at
Craftsy crystallized my lessons to their essence, then enhanced them with
computer motion graphics and crisp editing to clarify the techniques. I
can honestly say that this online class is some of my very best work, and the
most satisfying creative collaboration I've experienced.

Here are some key things to know:
· When
you buy the class, it’s yours forever.
Watch as many times as you want.
· You
can pause and repeat key lines and segments to clarify a point.

can type specific questions to me, and I’ll respond personally in a timely
manner.

you like, you can post your sketches online, and request feedback from me and
other class participants.
· The
class is ridiculously affordable.
Here are some excerpts from reviews by students:
· “I've been waiting for this class for 30
years... It's hit the nail on the head for me. Thanks Jim!”
· “Best class ever! I've taken a lot of Craftsy classes, but this
is by far my favorite.”
· “Thanks a lot James for your absolute
great loose sketching lessons!!!! It's so wonderful to experience and I’ve
never had the skills and confidence to go for urban drawings, far too difficult
for me. But you've changed my mind about that completely!”
· “I was really sad to finish this class!
Happily I can go back and watch all the lessons again :) James Richards has a
really engaging and entertaining teaching style and I found his instruction so
helpful.”
· “This is the home of WOW moments! James bring valuable insight to both the
thought and process of sketching and I had so many "wow" moments -
the clouds of doubt and confusion of the past disappeared and the technique or
concept was right there and I was able to go try it and WOW - it made a huge
difference - this was just the guidance and instruction I have needed.

ReplyDeleteNo, the class mentioned above is my only class. i have recommended Suhita Shirodkar's Craftsy class "Figure Sketching Made Simple." I think it's excellent.
Deletewow. Thanks for responding. I love ydour stuff and will look up the class. Lina
DeleteI have just finished watching your Craftsy course... all the way through....and I am so impressed and grateful. Your techniques, your clear instructions and your easy going style have really inspired me to get out there and just do it.... as Nike would say !! Now I am going to go back to the beginning of the class and practice, practice and practice some more with the homework assignments and out and about in my town. I'm excited. Thank you !!! I have taken about 10 classes at Craftsy and yours is the very best.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great note, Susan! I’m sorry I’m only now seeing it. I love hearing from folks about their experience with the class. Always keep it fun!
DeleteI, too, just completed "Essential Techniques for Sketching the Energy of Places"! Can't wait to head to our small town square to try out the ideas and instructions you shared! Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed the class—go get em!!
DeleteAm very new at watercolors less than a year. It has been challenging at times, knowing what to purchase with so many different opinions of artists I realize that all experience are diferente. Am a little bit more confidence in developing my own technique. Thanks to your class and recommendations in “Essential Techniques for Sketching Energy of Places” on Craftsy. I have never sketched on location but looking forward to that adventure soon.
