Comment:

Bryan took an introductory painting elective and made it into a semester of slaving over a class that isn't even about my major. If you need an easy studio credit, take anyone else. Demands your constant attention and participation. Heavy on homework for a studio class as well.

I like Bryan a lot. He is critical with good intentions. My figure drawing skills have improved a lot from working with him. He also has so much to tell about his life as an artist. Don't miss the opportunity to take his class.

Comment:

You will work. A lot. But if you are receptive and open, he will teach you so much about yourself and your work. Do his homework and show up to as many classes as you can. If you give him your dedication, you will get a lot out of any class with Bryan.

Comment:

I'm a junior now, and I took his intro to painting class Freshman year. It is still to this point my favorite class I had ever had. He made me look at the whole world in a different perspective, especially the way colors work. It's a lot of hours a week, but it zips by instantly because you'll be having so much fun. Great teacher, great class.
