I liked the way the class was organized and presented. The outline was clearly stated with the goal’s for completing each part of the class. I liked the challenge of the homework. The handouts and references are excellent. The painting class sessions were a challenge but a great experience to paint along, the ability to ask questions and learn from others in the class. Tim covered every aspect of creating a painting from drawing to the finished piece.
I like the easy access to the YouTube recordings that are always available. I learned a lot from the the individual and group feedback- critique sessions. With Tim’s classes the students benefit from the instruction, inspirational artwork and the expertise of a accomplished painter.
This class was comprehensive and inspiring!

Great workshop! I have always admired Tim's work and wanted to learn more about his approach. Tim does an excellent job of explaining concepts as he works through paintings. I was able to get many insights in how to improve my painting. Also, having access to the videos after the workshop meant I could rewind to reinforce concepts when needed. All in all I feel this was time well invested. Looking forward to the next workshop.

Skies and Clouds is the third class I have taken with Tim. I’m now part of his ongoing forum…Art Journey. I have learned so much! Tim’s teaching style and personal one/on-one input have moved me significantly forward in my learning of oil painting.

This was a great class for advanced and beginners. Lots of tips on layout, colors and general land and sky scapes. Additional one on one video call once a week besides the 3 hour classes. I recommend this class.

Thank you, Tim, for such a helpful class!
Your painting process is discribed so clearly and completely. It's such a welcomed road map!
In the Sky Class, I was fascinated with the color mixtures you use to create the near and distant appearance of clouds.
I've taken several of your classes and appreciate how you teach even the fine points such as discribing the colors you are mixing to achieve effects of perspective, and demonstrating how you correct a problem area or create a variety of edges.
You always seem truly interested in teaching.
Your patient encouragement of questions, and the live personal critiques, offer us such a rich and unique learning opportunity!
I also really appreciate the available homework assignments related to each class subject.
The presentation of concepts based on Artist's work, past and present, is so eye opening. I love seeing these comparisons!
Thank you for offering such an engaging "Art Journey!"

I loved this class with Tim! I am learning so much from his classes. He explains every detail of his work when he’s teaching and his knowledge and patience is extraordinary. I also joined the Art Journey community and am inspired by the work and community. It’s fun to log on anytime I want and connect with like minded people.

Tim's online Skies and Clouds course exceeded my expectations! Tim is a rare teacher. He not only expertly demonstrated how to paint the skies and cloud paintings that were part of this course, but he was able to effectively verbalize how to go about this. His critiques were extremely thorough and thoughtful, and through his instruction you could see the progress each student made throughout this course. Thank you, Tim!

The Skies and Clouds class with Tim was a great learning experience, and Tim is a natural teacher as well as an incredible artist. The class consisted of demonstrations and individual critique sessions. The demos were well structured with new concepts covered each week, and I really enjoyed watching Tim’s painting process - how he mixes the paint colors, brush techniques, etc. How he is able to explain the process, answer questions, keep the camera angles perfect AND paint beautifully all at once, I don’t know, but he seems to do it all with ease. Some students painted along with him, but I took fairly extensive notes so I can go back and remember everything. The 15 minute critique sessions were immensely helpful, as Tim would make a copy of my painting in photoshop, then make suggestions and show changes on the copy, so I could clearly see how his suggestions would look, compared to the original. You wouldn’t be able to get this level of feedback in a traditional in-person class, the one to one attention is so helpful.
Highly recommended!

Tim is an excellent artist and instructor. He takes the time to explain, critique, and answer any questions. He is patient and approachable, and his instruction and techniques are very helpful. I highly recommend Tim, whether you are a beginner or a more experienced painter.

I’m so glad I took Tim’s sky class. It really helped me understand clouds and atmosphere more, and it has definitely improved my paintings! Highly recommend.

TJ is an amazing teacher! He is incredibly well prepared, clear, thorough, and patient.
He is a very talented painter whose generosity is unequaled. He takes time to address questions and critique students paintings so that the whole class learns from what each other are doing. I have taken many workshops with other artists but TJ is the very best!!
I can't recommend his classes enough. Don't miss out. If you want to improve your painting take his class now!

TJ is a superb, very thorough and very patient teacher. He takes time in explaining what he is demonstrating. I really enjoyed his workshop and his teaching style.

I am not a landscape painter .This is not a finished painting, but it is the result of the simple plan of how to start a painting that was taught in this class. I would recommend this class to anyone who struggles with how to begin a painting and bring it along step by step, simplifying the process to bring your vision to the canvas. I also enjoyed the homework and will use those lessons going forward. I like my painting so well at this stage I may never finish it. Very worthwhile, informative, and beautifully structured class for a beginner or more advanced painter.
