Develop Your Skills with Expert Feedback via Video

with Professional Artist and Instructor Meryl Ann Butler

“If you are eager to learn the secrets of art from a classically trained mentor, please consider my feedback via video—these personalized videos are practical, informative and encouraging.

I use the term “friendly feedback” rather than the scarier word, “critique”  because I believe that there are no mistakes—only creative experiments which provide an opportunity to learn something essential. 

In my eyes, students are never wrong, they just aren’t at the end of that particular journey yet. Feeling stuck or unsure of the next step is an indication that exciting new information is waiting to be revealed! 

My job as an instructor is to find out where you want to go with your image, and then offer you clear guidelines on how to get there.” – Meryl Ann Butler

Sample Feedback Video 1:

“Perspective, Paris and Books”

I have only been painting for about 18 months and the idea of having my work ‘critiqued’ by an expert was scary. But the feedback video Meryl Ann created for me was friendly and EXTREMELY helpful and educational!

Based on what I have seen offered by other online instructors, I was not expecting to get so much specific and useful advice.

I’m really looking forward to using this practical feedback as I begin upcoming paintings. And, I plan to create a new version of one of my critiqued paintings so I can apply these valuable tips right now – thanks, Meryl Ann!

Sample Feedback Video 2:

“ Water Reflections, Landscape, Light Source, Distance, Composition”

I’m so impressed with the analysis Meryl Ann did on my art quilt! She saw the positive aspects as well as the areas that could use tweaking and explained why in clear, understandable terms. I learned a lot about how to look at my composition in ways I didn’t know how to and this invaluable critique will help me continue to grow as a fiber artist.

I mean it, too!!!

FAQ’s on Friendly Feedback by Video

What kinds of art work can I have critiqued by video?

Meryl Ann offers informative critiques in all the subjects she teaches, including:

  • Paintings in progress, especially oils, acrylic, pastels, mixed media, journals, pen and ink, etc.
  • Drawings in progress, especially charcoal, graphite, Prismacolor, Bargue plates, mandalas, etc.
  • Completed paintings or drawings (this may be useful if, for example, there is something about the image that always bothered you and you don’t know why. The goal is not to change the finished work, but to apply what is learned to future work.)
