Corel Painter 101 for Animators
April 26, 2008 through June 28, 2008
Saturday afternoons 2 pm - 5 pm
Karen Sperling is teaching a class at Studio Arts in Glendale, CA for motion picture and television professionals,
but anyone is welcome. Unlike the Artistry Retreats, where the emphasis is turning photos into paintings for
photographers, the class at Studio Arts is aimed more at creating paintings "from scratch" for artists.

Here are some reviews from the previous Artistry Retreat and Artistry GARTEL Marketing Seminar:
Photographer Painting Ever Since She Left Malibu Artistry Retreat
Dear Karen,
I am writing to thank you for the amazing Artistry Retreat this past week.
It is always difficult for professionals to take time out and learn
something that they have been wanting to learn for a while, so I
appreciate that it was time well spent.
In the past 4 years I have only taken 2 classes on Painter and after
the first class I was unable to remember everything that I had been
taught.
I am so excited to share with you that you not only taught me the most
important techniques that I could incorporate into my photography, but
you also did it with patience and professionalism.
The way you teach is fantastic.
You made sure we understood everything before we went on to something
else and you shared your many talents with us.
It was a blessing to be a student in your classroom.
I have been painting ever since I left Malibu and I have been commissioned by
two families to do portraits.
I am forever grateful for your teachings and your talents that you shared with us.
Sincerely,
Kim Lemaire

Artistry Gartel Marketing Seminar Exceeds Expectations
Karen,
The Artistry Gartel Marketing Seminar was much more than I expected.
I received concise, to the point information on marketing my work,
which was exactly what I was looking for.
From past to present, Laurence Gartel is well versed in the digital art world.
He is up to date in his knowledge of the field and the direction things are going in,
and his insight into current and future trends was amazing!
My only regret is that I didn't meet with him sooner. It would have saved me
a considerable amount of time and effort.
Thank you for putting together a great seminar at a stellar location.
Malibu was the perfect location for the event. It's a great place to learn as well as inspire.
Best regards,
Ben Mahler
