Reviews of professor Russell Leng

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Russell is an incredible professor, I would suggest taking him over any of the other art profs. His critiques are extremely constructive and helpful. It is evident that he wants his students to succeed. His goal for the course is to build your skills as an artist and to make you think about art. The workload is not easy, you will paint A Lot!

Russel has a very blunt communication style. He doesn't seem to understand that this is an introductory art class as his marking is very tough and he is quite critical. Best chance to pass is by spending several hours on each assignment and participating in class, but even then you wont see an A. Better just to avoid his class altogether.

Hes a tough grader, and not very empathetic. Treat this class like its the most important class in your life, and youll still do poorly. Weekly assignments that youre expected to spend 3+ hours on.
