This is brilliant! People that have been painting, for even over a year, forget just WHERE to start. I took a beginners ceramic course at a local art community program, and it was AWFUL! The teacher couldn’t believe I didn’t know anything and SHE was awful! I spent A LOT of money for the course and supplies and everyone knew each other and treated it as open studio time. I am not stupid, but you don’t know what you don’t know, until you do. I am experienced in acrylics and watercolor and I think this is brilliant. If you don’t have small successes, you quit! Needless to say, I learned everything I needed to learn, on YouTube, to be able to make clay prototypes and launch a food grade silicone mold business. NEVER be ashamed of where you’re at! You will get better and teachers like this will allow us all to see the fantastic work of budding artists, who might have given up! Happy Painting!
