"Over the top. I rediscovered that I like to draw and look forward to honing those skills through the replays. The state of the art of realism in the talks by Dean, Peter, and Odd were magnificent and eye opening. Loved that the pre recorded demos had time lapse segments. This will be valuable on replay as the complete process was demoed. The interactive part..." Read more

"I too have taken both Plein Air and Realism Live and signed up for Watercolor Live. I like how you incorporate such variety in each day's presentations, demos, lectures, discussions, vendors, etc. It keeps the participants engaged and nothing, not one thing, was boring or lacking in value. I can’t sing your praises enough. Thanks for a great experience."

"I found it wonderful and inspiring. The motivation I needed to get back on track after pandemic derailment. I discovered great artists and a couple instructors I'll be reaching out to for mentorship: Daniel Gerhartz and Dan Thompson. Thank you!"

"The conference was AMAZING! I loved the demo, the critiques, the historical art information and the hysterical comedic relief. I was waiting for Bob Ross to hit his brush on his easel. So many more things I loved."

"It has been inspiring, just what I needed. It hadn’t occurred to me until this just how much I was missing having art conversations and connecting with other artists!"

"Thank you for adopting so quickly and making it happen. My dream came true! I’m thrilled to be able to see my favorite artists paint and be able to ask questions and receive answers. The sense of community is strong. With healthy competition we are pushing ourselves out of our comfort zones. Really enjoyed all the paint alongs and your nonstop encouragements..." Read more

"Ok, I’ve got to come clean. I tend to start workshops and conferences a bit cynically. Maybe it’s the crowds and overwhelming info. So that’s how I started on the Beginner’s Day. Here we are on the last day and I have been totally won over. I’m a convert. Not just to plein air (I’ve always loved that!), but to this Live process! I’ve taken notes and painted..." Read more

"I just want to take a minute to tell you how fantastic PleinAir Live was. I have taken workshops before, but I can honestly say I have never learned as much as I did these last four days. After the first day, I thought that one day was worth the whole price, but then came the wonderful artists on the second day, and then the third, and then Kevin Macpherso..." Read more

"This event has been a salad bar buffet for us plein air painters. It was a treat to meet so many painters and so much talent ! There are a few that stand out for me, only because they were either a step outside my comfort zone or in sync with my inner artist."

"I never thought I would get to go to realism live. I honestly didn’t know what to expect. Realism Live rocked my world, is a game changer and life changing for me. I learned so much from everyone that presented and in the chats. I am encouraged, inspired, and so in awe of everything I learned (brain overload still -lol) I cried through watching several demos..." Read more
