I am so grateful to have had Cindy as my coach for the last few years. During this time, Cindy has helped me to develop my skills far more than I would have dreamed possible. Her methods and course are comprehensive, coupled with a friendly and encouraging teaching style. Cindy gently guides me in my choice of projects so that I am constantly challenged, but also working at an appropriate level for my current skill level. The personal video critiques that I receive regularly are invaluable to my learning. I would highly recommend Cindy’s mentoring and coaching to anyone wanting to learn to draw.

I just found out that I got an honorable mention award in the Light Space and Time seascape competition. I am very excited!! I couldn’t have done it without your help. Thank You so much.

I can’t believe I have invented 3 characters and drawn a castle that looks good. Thank you for all the help and advice I really couldn’t have gotten my drawing to where it is now, it probably wouldn’t exist if you hadn’t helped me. I couldn’t do any of this without your help and advice. Mentoring has been the best thing for me, so thank you. I’m starting to get excited to see the final work completed.

I have said this before, but honestly I can’t say it emphatically enough – YOU are the reason I am even considering myself as an artist. I know I have A LOT to learn, but I can actually now visualize myself illustrating my own stories
