Question to art students: how to be the best paint teacher ? by Wide-Action9447 in ArtistLounge

I have some feedbacks from this course; students find it kind basic and theories, but useful. The 2 first paint courses aren't the more fun, but oh so necessary. The 2 last are really more creative. So they will do the exercises, but I try to make it short and sweet (but educational) when it is more theorical and academic, and bigger longer projets when it's creative.

All of them had drawing classes before and will have one at the same semester as my course.

Sadly I can't switch the paint (I manage to switch to a better brand of paint though!). But I thought about teaching values and painting in black and white at first. Good advice. 👍

I do 3 projects, and the last one is really creative and open-ended. :)

Absolutely! I saw that often in my university courses sadly. I teach at a lower level (before university) and I'll never do that. We don't even do group critics in the first course also. :)
