Comment:
Take him the first semester if you want to learn a couple things about drawing. He knows what he's talking about so listen to what he has to say. Plays favorites and hardly acknowledged my improvements. Lots of work, but lots of finished projects too.

If all you want to learn is "darker darks and lighter lights" then take his drawing class. He gives a few brief teaching demo's but overall he says does or says nothing about your work in class. Projects are usually large and very time consuming. Very easy to get a B, almost impossible to get an A.

Hard to get an A easy to get a B... Doesn't really teach anything, and his critiques are pointless. Obviously chooses favorites.

I really enjoyed Bob's class. It was laid back enough to really encourage you to stand out and have some freedom. Bob himself, i feel, offered encouragement and criticism without tearing you apart. I feel as though i really produced some worthwhile pieces in this class.

Comment:
Bob was by far the best art professor I ever had. Not only was he great at teaching us what we needed to know, but without even trying he made us want to put our best work forward. We would feel like we disappointed him if we didn't give our very best effort. And by the end of the year my class felt more like a family than a class. I miss Bob. And he had a cool beard.

Encouraging prof, expects devotion and progress. Gave us a field trip to his house once, and personally gave me a HUGE canvas to work on senior year. Great guy with a strange sense of humor.

Bob... he is a funny guy, but he didnt teach me much. He did cancel class 6 times in 3 quarters if you like that. The nude self portrait was very hard to manage in the dorms, but I loved the water color portion. He was medioccure to me, I reccomend him if you like to hear 'it needs more darks' everyday and want irresponsibility.

Comment:
He was very entertaining. A little vague, but eventually got to the point. He helped me to improve a lot in my drawing skills. Constantly looking for new techniques. He really encourages you to use some creativity in projects that would other wise be really boring.

The best art teacher I ever had. Tough but fair. I learned more in his class than I did in the rest of my classes combined.

Very amusing teacher. I've had alot of experience w/ drawing before the class so it was pretty easy, but alot of improvement was visible in everyone throughout the year. Reccomended.

Hilarious, entertains the class, but you need to have some previous art experience to get a good grade. Hard to get A's, but is very fair with B's.

I had Bob 11 years ago. He gave a TON of homework and was difficult, but was extremely fair and taught us many good techniques. And he cracked me up.
