Student Testimonials

“Thank you Lauren. I enjoyed your class. Your style of teaching was all positive with no pressure.”

—Pat Porter, painting student

“I just finished 2 weeks of virtual oil painting lessons with Lauren Kindle and it was an amazing experience, especially for a beginner like me. Lauren's daily assignments fit into my busy schedule and were well-planned, thorough, and each lesson was built off the previous one. She included different styles (still-life, landscape, abstract, surrealistic) into the lessons as well. Lauren was always available by text, phone, or email for any questions, advice, and feedback. I have developed a love for oils, color mixing, and working with a palette knife and am feeling more confident in my practice after taking Lauren's lessons.

I look forward to taking more classes with her, virtually and in-person. Lauren is an incredible teacher that has no "shoulds" in art. It has helped me so much to take this class to get over my "shoulds" and I cannot wait to paint more! I highly recommend this class for anyone who wants to explore their creativity! Lauren's art is beautiful and unique and it is an honor to learn from her.”
