Had a great time, and was very impressed with their teaching methods. They are a "have to" for any caricature carver. Where else can you get two for the price of one? I'll try for a couple of pic's. Didn't know if I should post the "back view".

Thanks everyone for the kind words. Yes, they do come prepared, very well organized, no lost class time. I also started a nurse to go with this patient, plus I bought the doctor roughout. These will have to go on the "to do" list, as I need to work on Christmas stuff. I don't like to paint, but after having them lead me through their method, I feel much better about it. The eyes were a challenge for an old man, but I was very pleased with the out come. I've been using a 10/0 brush for the eyes, which I thought was small, they use an 18/0, which is invisible. (nearly)

That is a nice one Bob! I like the color tones and the expression.

I will be in their class Oct 20-22 and looking very mush forward to their class.
With a few taking their classes that are on this board and seeing the end results, I am glad I am taking their class for my first class.
