“Kathleen is a fabulous teacher. She makes this fun, and you can tell she loves her work, both as a teacher and as a painter. Today, she said she got chills just listening to a student speak about an aspect of art and art making. She is very positive, enthusiastic and encouraging of students, and her reinforcement and validation of her students comes out in their work. When people feel valued and feel their work is valuable, they improve rapidly. This aspect is apparent in Kathleen’s classes. I thoroughly enjoyed the class and the environment Kathleen engendered in the class. Thank you, Kathleen! It was great being with you again.”

“I have already recommended Kathleen to several friends - I told them Kathleen has a great way of teaching and keeping it fun”

“Kathleen is an excellent teacher! Her classes are clearly and logically constructed with easy-to-follow demos and interesting exercise prompts. Her dedication to making the course clear and accessible has made it a joy. Thank you! ”

“I feared I wouldn’t have advanced enough drawing skills to keep up with the course. Kathleen provided the necessary instruction to improve my confidence and help develop those skills, and I learned so so so much!”

“For me to stay with a class and learn, I need to trust, like and respect my instructor. Kathleen is
masterful at being at ease and creating ease for her students; she’s warm, fun and clearly loves
teaching art and being an artist. She’s incredibly generous with her knowledge.”

“Thank you for a great online interactive class today :-) You are so good at explaining so many things at one time - I am really glad to be able to learn from you again.”

“Kathleen is an excellent artist, inspiring teacher, and a wonderful person.
I recommend her highly to anyone who is interested in learning painting from a patient, knowledgeable art teacher.”

“What did you like about the course? The professionalism and educational integrity that Kathleen brings to her classes is unsurpassed by any other class I have seen at the high school level anywhere. Her classes are well-run, her lectures are interesting and well-informed, her academic style invites conversation and participation from students.
Would you recommend this course to others? Yes, every college-bound student should take it.”

“I had always hated art. It was a subject that really frustrated me mostly because I was so bad at it. When it came time to earn my art credit for high school in though, I knew I had to take Art History because history was a subject I loved!
The class was a lot more then what I had bargained for. The instructor, Kathleen Moore filled the room with her passion for art, and the lectures were always engaging. So far she is the only teacher I have had that can have me completely engrossed in the lecture for over an hour. Her enthusiasm for the subject was so contagious and her knowledge on the subject is so vast. We would study of course the artist, and their influences but we were also shown how to read the paintings as if they were books. Along with studying artistic technique we also were introduced to the history and cultural influences of the artist in the given time. I can now fully appreciate the painting as a whole, I no longer just look and see a pretty picture, but I can understand what the textures mean, what the artist is trying to say, and the social context that might have influenced the painter. Kathleen’s class has given me an amazing gift. It has opened up a whole new area that was dark to me before.”
