    Great as always!

    Amy is probably the best CP teacher out there. I have never been disappointed by her in person or video classes. This flower class is very thorough. Her preparation for the class is obvious. With the hand outs ahead of time we are ready to fully participate. She explains things well for every level. It is fast paced because of the jellybean format but the video makes it easy to stop and restart according to individual needs.

    Far Exceeded Expectations!

    I am so glad I took all 5 of Amy's classes on Botanical art. I have "dabbled" in color pencil for about 5 years - taking various classes, viewing various YouTube demos, etc. Amy brought everything into focus with her down to Earth teaching style and her ongoing verbal instruction on her techniques, favorite supplies and equipment, lessons learned, etc. She has reignited my interest in and commitment to take my color pencil art to the next level. Thank you Amy for all your preparation and for your excellent delivery style and steadfast focus on achieving the goals for each class. You have a gift and I appreciate your sharing it with us. Just know - you have made a difference in promoting the joy of color pencil art. I look forward to your future classes.

    Excellent. More Please 🙏

    Amy’s ability to simplify and convey the complexities of color theory can only be gained from her deep understanding of colored pencil application and decades of experience. Amy reiterates that the process of color theory takes patience and practice.This series is a perfect companion to Amy’s books on colored theory, which she refers to during her instruction. Frankly, those 2 books should be a prerequisite! I completed the exercises in her first colors workbook, which gave me a jumpstart into this series. I watched the video since I missed the online meeting. How can I ask Amy questions post session? I would love to attend a deeper dive into her applications of color theory given in a ten series botanical study.

    Such a fabulous class

    This was the only class in the series I wasn't able to attend and it's so great to get the video. That way I didn't have to miss anything. Really enjoy Amy's classes. So informative and I've learned so much. Thank you for these Jelly Bean classes! Thank you Amy!

    Over the top

    This was an excellent class. I was actually stuck on a project and now I’m able to go forward because I know how to do it. But there’s no substitute for practice. My only suggestion would be that perhaps class prep should include gradation bars for the colors, you’re going to use. If I had done that much, I would have been better prepared for class.

    Hi Ginger, Thank you so much for the feedback - it truly is super helpful for us. We plan on running these classes again in the fall and I have made note to update that for future sessions. So happy you can finally go back and finish the project you're working on. Thank you for your support and Happy Coloring! Kind Regards,Priscilla Summersannkullberg.com
