October 16, 2009 by Julie Gilbert Pollard

“Experiencing watercolors in a class taught by Julie is a very special event.
Each lesson you walk away with something new and a feeling of “I can do this” if I keep at it. Her classes give you a sense of not only good companionship but that here is an artist who truly knows her craft with the special talent of being able to share her knowledge and show the student how to approach the technique.  I enjoy each lesson and look forward to the next.  Her follow-up is amazing as she completes her paintings she sends them to us via e-mail – in case we missed a class or just ran out of time. I have never had the feeling of where do I go from here effect experienced in so many other classes. 

I would and do recommend her classes to all my friends.”

My Teaching Philosophy

My goal is to individualize instruction as much as possible. I introduce the basics to the beginning student and work with the more advanced student in gaining a more solid knowledge of those same basic techniques, along with the all-important principles and elements of design. I always try to present material in a logical, practical manner, along with a large dose of encouragement with emphasis on motivation and personal taste. In class, beginning painters will work in a structured manner and ALL levels are encouraged to experiment and practice as much as possible in order to build confidence and experience with methods and materials. Workshops generally focus on a method or subject, while weekly classes may offer basic technique or independent projects with guidance as needed and “class projects” as requested. Whatever the venue, my over-riding objective is to support and assist each person in his or her search for individual artistic personality.
