Class Description:

The chance to have a 30-minute individual critique session with Alyssa Monks following the end of the Transcending the Photo Reference Workshop.

Critiques are an effective way for the individual artist to get direct feedback on their own personal work. Students can bring as many pieces as they like for review with Alyssa and as many questions relating to their own work as would be helpful to them in their growth and development of their own projects. This could be the beginning of a mentorship that could continue over zoom should the student choose.
