Reviews of professor Kristen Peyton

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Took ART211 spring 2020. I had some art background before but nothing really formal. I really benefited from learning new ways of thinking to compose/view stuff. Each hw assignment took me about 3 hrs. Breaks happen in middle of class. Sometimes we go right into drawing. She does take late work with penalty. Expect for her to check readings.

Professor Peyton is just the best! Super helpful feedback, and she considers the time and effort you put into work + your own personal growth when grading. Really pushes you to be a better painter. Grading criteria can be unclear at times, but she has never docked points unfairly. Listen to her feedback and go out of your comfort zone. 10/10!

Professor Peyton was helpful to an extent with what she taught. She grades in the manner that she teaches so if you don't follow step by step you can get docked. Lectures at the start of class about topics were long. However towards the end of the year she really understood course load and gave extensions (albeit during Coronacation). Overall 6/10
