FAQ

Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers!

If you have any questions that need more clarification, please contact me by email: mollicapatti (at) gmail.com

1. What is the time limit on access to the recorded classes and FB Group page?

You will have access to recorded classes and video lessons for 6 months from the last meeting date. You will have access to the FB group indefinitely.

You can get a full refund up to 1 week. If you feel the course is not right for you, please send an email with the title “Cancellation” in the subject heading within 7 days of purchase. I will send a full refund. After that period I will not be offering any refunds.

If you have a tech question(s) or run into issues, reach out to your classmates on the private Facebook Page, post your question and ask. The group members are always willing to help out. If you are having a problem logging in or another problem accessing the course, please contact me and I will try to help. My email address is listed below.

No. The supplies are just a suggestion – if you can find a similar at a better price, better delivery time somewhere else, do so.
If you don’t want to experiment with expensive professional grade paint, use student grade paint, which has a lot less pigment in it, dries more translucent (less opaque). The price of the paint reflects it’s quality and pigment load.
The workshop is suitable for all levels. The homework exercises will entail working with relatively simple objects and shapes. You are not expected to draw or paint complex subjects. My experience is that whenever you are learning something you’ve never tried before, it can be challenging – no matter what your skill level. If the homework assignments feel too challenging, modify them as necessary to suit your skill level. In other words, make the assignments do-able in any way you need to.
7. Can I just read your book instead of taking the workshop?
Yes but the lessons and exercises covered in the workshop are not covered in the book. Also there are obvious advantages to working in real time with other students and engaging in the same assignments. Seeing the work of your fellow classmates – who are working on the same exercises is very educational and inspirational. As we all know, reading is not the same as actively participating.
No. “Sharing” with a someone who has not paid for the workshop is unethical – the content is not free. Acquiring the knowledge and experience that is presented in this workshop has taken many years. Preparing this course has been time-consuming. Please respect that. Also the material presented is protected under my copyright. Teachers may not take any part of my presentations and use it or the homework assignments to teach their own classes without my permission.
Take a photo of your work, and upload it to the private Facebook page. In the comment field, please label your posts in this manner: type: #Lesson 1 or #Lesson 2, etc., . You can also type any other comments or questions with your post
The beauty of the online format is that so much can be learned by seeing how your classmates interpret and handle the exact same assignment, and reading any feedback. If you see that a classmate has done something you admire – ask them how they achieved the effect. Our group is for sharing, learning and supporting. The group page is PRIVATE – no one will be able to view your posts except your fellow classmates. All comments need to be supportive and helpful – not critical or negative. Also, If someone wants “constructive critisism” feedback from the group or anyone specifically, its up to them to ask.
You will need a facebook account if you don’t already have one. After you register for the workshop, you will receive an invitation to join the FB group. Accept the invitation. After doing so, you’ll be able to post your images, ask questions and meet your classmates.

No – but you will learn much more if you do. We learn by doing, not by intellectually agreeing or understanding.

It’s time to take your Paintings to the next level
