Joel used to make me wanna stick my palette knife in my eye. I thought he was an unhelpful, harsh egomaniac. He really does grow on you though.

Did not learn anything in his class. He praises unconditionally, everything is "very good" and "wonderful" for him to save your fragile ego, but this way his comments are not helpful at all, these words lose their meaning if they are o

Harsh, if he doesn't like your work he'll let you know. He has a specific way he wants you to paint and its his way or the highway. However, you do learn a lot about painting from him although its hard to create your own style in his class.

I completely agree with the commenter on 5/8 yet I would have to say he is the most do-able prof on campus. Why?

Do not delete comments. To do so is a violation of free speech. If you are a sensitive artist, you better wear a metal jacket in this class.

A conventional modernist. Narrow-minded, negative, discouraging, argumentative, and gives inconsistent instructions.

He's very attractive and helpful but sometimes obnoxious in his love of artists like Matisse (and his subsequent admiration of students who produce similar works.)
