“I have often wished I could just have my favorite photographers sit down with me by my computer and show me the hows, whys and whens of PS. This course is the next best thing. While the whole course is excellent, I especially find the post processing modules to be most helpful in teaching craft. I'm almost finished with the whole course and plan on running through the post processing sections again with pen and paper in hand to take notes. Well worth the investment!”

“Richard did an amazing job on this series. I was hooked and binge watched through the videos. I especially loved his brainstorming process and I think it is a powerful tool for all types of artists. I shared the process with my son, an illustrator and animator and he found the process helpful as well. Thankyou Richard for sharing so many amazing types and tricks. It was wonderful to watch your creative process from start to finish!”
