"Botkins
was very fortunate to host Craig Srebnik for a
5 day oil painting workshop. The participants
are still talking about it. Everyone learned a
great deal, picking up tricks and techniques that
will be incorporated in future portraits. I personally
learned more art history in a week with Craig
than in years in college. I'm looking forward
to attending another workshop with him when he
returns to the area." Dan Knepper, Workshop Organizer,

"I
would recommend that any serious artist participate
in Craig Srebnik's Workshops. He reveals the 'secrets'
of the Classical through Nineteenth Century Masters
in an intense, yet easy to understand, hands-on
studio setting. Srebnik's mastery of what he teaches
is evident in his paintings, which rank among
the finest I have seen. "

"I
continue to hear great feedback from artists that
attended your workshop at Fine Artists Factory.
While visiting their studios I have noticed that
they have studies they produced in your class
proudly on display. They have also mentioned they
look forward to receiving your email updates.
I look forward to working with you again in the
future."

Srebnik has been an invited workshop instructor
for the Hilton Head Art League for many years. It
was my experience that Craig was very professional
in the classroom and always earned positive remarks
from his students. I feel enrolling in one of Craig's
workshops would be a rewarding experience for students
at any level. "

you want to take your oil technique to the next
level, I'd recommend Craig's Figure Painting Workshop.
His demos coupled with logical explanations will
inspire you."

"Everyone
was very impressed with your portrait and
figure painting demonstrations, your explanations
of artistic principles and concepts, and the
generous individual attention that they received.
The number of students
returning to
study with you again speaks volumes about
your great teaching skills and how much knowledge
you have to share."

"Students'
work improved dramatically over the five
days of teaching. He is professional, articluate,
knows his subject matter well and extremely
knowledgeable about anatomy, painting the
figure and art history. His evaluations
were superb."

"As
a workshop coordinator I just want to say
how wonderful is was to work with Craig.
His professionalism and attention to detail
from start to finish made my job as the
host very easy. The students enjoyed his
workshop and were provided with a vast amount
of information. I look forward to working
with Craig in the future."

Srebnik taught me the anatomical structure
and form of the human figure in the context
of drawing and painting--that you can't learn
anywhere else."

workshop at ANAC was terrific! I learned a
lot and your handouts and very practical information
were excellent. And I especially like your

wanted to express my total appreciation for
all you did in the workshop to make yourself
available to us. The fact that you are offering
this availability to us even now is truly
awesome; I have studied with many teachers
over the years and have never really had such
an offer from them – at least which sounded
this sincere. So thank you. The workshop was
everything I was hoping for, yet far more
as well. Also, I want to express how grateful
I am for all the knowledge you passed on to
us – you are a veritable encyclopedia of information
about art history and how it applies to us
in the pursuance of our art (note emphasis).
It has really encouraged me to explore art
history on my own since I’ve returned from
your workshop."

| "I
am a Fine Art major and I came away with more
practical information than from an entire
semester of painting classes. Craig methodically
worked with the class, providing us with a
strategy that could be effectively used to
replicate good results ouside of the classroom."

started the Atelier program as a novice painter
and within a year I was exhibiting my paintings
and teaching. The program focuses on concepts,
principles and techniques so that each artist
develops the ability to express their own
artistic vision."

| "Having
admired Craig Srebnik's skillful and sensitive
portrayals of the human figure for many years,
I was thrilled at the chance to study with
him. My enrollment at Atelier Srebnik has
greatly impacted my own figure work, through
Craig's enlightenment of classical academic
painting methods and an in-depth study of
figure structure. Extremely generous with
his knowledge, Craig is entirely committed
to the advancement of his students' work."

| "Artists
need to understand human anatomy--especially
the skeletal structure and musculature-in
terms of three-dimensional form and movement,
combined with artistic qualities like beauty,
harmony and proportion. Srebnik has this knowledge
to offer to you."

"Craig's
seminar gave me everything I needed to make
a career change to fine art. He helped me
develop a successful career plan, with a
strategy to achieve my goals--in a field
that had seemed chaotic. Now I feel that
I am in control as my career expands and
my artistic vision evolves."

"The
gallery tour really helped 'break the ice'
for my wife and I about visiting art galleries
and dealers. Craig's talk helped us to understand
and distinguish different styles of art
and techniques. It has enhanced our enjoyment
and appreciation of the artwork in galleries,
museums and in our own home. "
