I learned more from the course than I thought possible and my art is nothing like their style. Many graduates don‘t choose that style and the course certainly does not teach it. You are taught how to be an artist, skills, marketing and so on. What makes the course different is the focus on learning what are your strengths and finding your voice. I too almost didn’t take it because I do not care for the style. It is what people are paying big bucks for though and that‘s why you see their graduates emulating it.
Part 2 is the best!! I’m super excited for you. Let me know if you post your artwork on social media anywhere I would love to look at it. Keep going this is where the fun really starts. 👍😊
Best program out there. You’re given so much and supported to explore your style/voice. Sometimes early graduates or going thru it may look a little similar to your instructors but that is normal as your learning. As we continue to paint and explore that changes. Just as professional artists that have been painting a while will grow and change. You are also right about the Milan’s and extended crew. Honest, real,kind,encouraging,humble and will share with you anything they know, they hold no secrets back. The best!
We definitely continue to grow and evolve as artists. And it makes perfect sense that emerging artists would paint in a style similar to their mentor or teacher, especially until they establish their own voice. One thing I know for sure is that I have yet to see two artists ever paint exactly the same way. That's likely because we all have our own perspectives and stories that we bring to our art. It is as unique as our fingerprint and what makes art so special. Thank you for your comment. I appreciate you and your time. 😊🌺
Thank you! I think although there might be no rules in art, it will always be enriching to learn about techniques, materials, etc. Thanks for sharing about this course! 😊
I completely agree with what you're saying. I studied music for a period of time in college, and it was all about rules, rules, rules. Then, suddenly, deeper into the program, I started hearing about breaking the rules. Some of the best musicians I met studying music broke the rules left and right. Learn the rules, break the rules, lol. Thank you for watching my video and for commenting. I really appreciate it.
You bet. I was looking for videos like this before I entered the program. I see you're a horse lover. You will especially enjoy this course because the Milan family are also horse lovers, and you will see techniques for painting horses during the course of the program. I wish you the best of luck, keep me posted if you proceed. I'd love to see your work.
I love the program. I know people have commented on the similar styles. It is up to the individual to decide what style they want to emulate. Where are you in the program?
I finished the program in June. It was life-changing. You make a great point about the artist's painting style choices during the program. There is no push for students to paint one style over another. I saw all styles when I was in the program. I agree with what @lindakahega9553 stated the style the Milan's paint in is desired by collectors, which probably draws the interest of students, that and they probably like the style themselves. Where are you at in the program? Is any of your work visible on social media? I would love to look at it. :)
Thank you for such a wonderful compliment! I really appreciate you taking the time to leave this comment. I do see what I paint in my mind before I paint it. And then I can't stop seeing it until I paint it lol. :)
@@theartzscientist8012 There are definitely a lot of similar-style art pieces that are created in the program as students find their voice. Then the styles branch out as they discover who they uniquely are. 😊
@@CristinaGarcia-jy8js Great point! Ultimately, it's all about what inspires you as an artist. As they say, imitation is the best form of flattery. The Milan's are extraordinary artists. I totally get the desire to want to paint in a way similar to them :)
Yes, you are biased unfortunately so, not a proper review as others have said all the artwork of the students look the same sorry, not for me, not my style either
IMO...In the beginning. (especially new painters) as you learn the instructors technique you might imitate that to learn how it works. At some point I would think seasoned painters will incorporate the different technique into thier style.
@@lisaalexgrayartist I don’t have a TH-cam channel I only have Instagram TH-cam channel has only got playlist for my own self …I’ve never done a video at all but thank you for your reply nothing personal against you

So well said! Thank you for this comment. I would live to see some of your work. Please share a link. ☺️👍✨
Love it too! I am entering part 2 and don’t fear my art will look the same, which is not there aim.

@@mariaelenarodriguez6188 i can tell if an artist studied under Milan Art. They all look similar.

Thank you for making this video. I've been thinking about taking courses. Its great to hear your first hand experiences.

Wow your Art is lovely. Do you see it in your mind before you do it?? Thanks for the review!

I heard there's a bunch of Trisomy X in Milan these days
I didn’t choose to take the course, as everyone’s art turns out the same.

@@theartzscientist8012 we must be careful not to do this but they teach lots of techniques
Yeah I've seen a lot of graduates end up using the same style. But during the course you are given the tools to develop your own voice and style.

@@CristinaGarcia-jy8js if so, why do they all look similar?

Please don't be sorry. I really appreciate your comment. I noticed you have a TH-cam channel. I look forward to seeing some of your artwork :)

@@IvySnowFillyVideos I agree and it is what I've seen happen in the program.
