Workshop reviews:

"Favian's workshop was what kickstarted my drawing journey. It was clear, concise, structured and well-explained. Whereas other workshops left me lost, feeling useless and confused, Favian's workshop inspired me and gave me the confidence and the knowledge to finally start my own drawing journey.

More than a year after Favian's workshop, I still find myself falling back to principles and techniques imparted by Favian!

Money well spent! Highly recommended!"

"Favian plans and organises his lessons in a easy to understand and logical manner. He does not rush through his lessons and takes time to explain the concepts with visuals and demos. I enjoyed his drawing workshops and definitely pick up a lot of good tips from Favian." - Grace Chia

-------------------------------------------------------------

"Favian broke down the process of urban sketching into steps I could follow to start with. His teaching was clear and encouraging so it was very enjoyable!"- Linda Lim

"I enjoyed the drawing workshop. Favian intersperses drawing principles with his personal experience and also offers little pearls of wisdom aboutdrawing along the way. The outdoor drawing experience also helps force us to practice what we’ve learnt immediately. Lastly, learning with other course mates make learning fun and interactive. I definitely enjoyed my time at the workshops." - Dr. Gilbert Tan

"My art coaching session with Favian was very helpful. He patiently went through paintings which I had trouble with pertaining to perspective and showed me with great clarity how I can easily improve on composition and getting my perspective right. I put the tips he gave me into practice the next day, and I can already see vast improvements. I highly recommend that you take his foundation class first and request for these one-on-one coaching session to further improve your skills." - Sherlee Ciu
