SVSLearn courses have been some of the greatest investments in my art education. The drawing and perspective classes were especially helpful in teaching me how to draw from imagination.

I’ve been saving and waiting a while to get on to SVS and see this as a career investment. For context, It’s my first time here but been a fan of 3 Point Perspective Podcast. I am working towards becoming an established author-illustrator for children’s picture books.

I joined SVS after being an avid listener of the Three Point Perspective podcast hosted by Jake, Will and Lee. The classes and quality of the teaching and lessons here are second to none.

The class that helps me the most was how to draw everything by Jake Parker. I was so lost on how to improve but Parker’s class made it so simple and straightforward.
