What students are saying...
What did Ruby age 12 think of this class?!
She loved it and she tells you why in this video!
"Taking Brandi Hofer’s online portrait class is one of the best gifts I have given myself. I am a mixed media artist.
This course is different than the rest because of the teacher. Brandi’s genuine sincerity, positive energy and easy guidance along with real time videos, really make it something special. She says it’s for everyone, and I absolutely agree! I have over 20 years of experience as an artist and have never attempted portraiture. I’ve always been in awe of it, thinking it was an impossible summit for me.
Now here I am with my first two portraits that I have ever done, with enough confidence to show them in person and on my social media.
Brandi’s philosophy and teaching method eliminated so much second guessing for me. She really reinforces that this practice of the artist, the hobbyist, the creative or the curious, is about play and experimentation. Not about being hard on ourselves. There’s enough of that crap out there."

“My three daughters are all very interested in art and so originally I had just thought for them to take the class.
I have been away from painting and drawing for 15 years. I decided to take the class with them and I’m so happy I did!
Not only was it fun to create together, but I have rekindled my passion for art and now feel so inspired to create more!
Brandi’s instruction was so thorough, easy to follow and inspiring! All three of my girls, ages 16, 12 and 9 LOVED this class and were amazed at how their portraits all turned out!
The method for getting the portrait drawn right, is a GAME CHANGER!
And because we are such a busy family with lots of other activities going on, this was perfect for us. We were able to fit it in so easily with our schedule!”

My testimonial: Here it is, do it. Take the class. This class was fun, it set me up for success, and it was easy. All the pressures and thoughts that normally loom over my head when I paint were gone.
