Reviews of professor Andrew Holliday

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This course was bad. I never felt encouraged to create projects that I was passionate about. The project themes are bazar and hard. I always given advice to complete my projects much harder than compared to my peers and was not given much help when things weren't working. I had to problem solve on my own. Frustrated a lot and the studio is gross.

Taking Professor Holliday's class is a great way to familarize yourself with a lot of different techniques and of course draw a lot. He is respectful of his students and gives clear, honest feedback on your work. The course is jam-packed, so sometimes the directions can be rushed because of a lack of time. Regardless, good drawing experience.

I just want to say, do NOT take Mr. Holliday if you can avoid him. Absolutely the worst. Does not help his students, will not give advice or explain why he graded the things so harshly. Gives barely any explanation to his project and they have nothing to do with my major. He comes up with random assignments that are not even in the lesson plan.

Attendance matters because you won't be able to get that time to draw back. Deadlines for drawings are iffy, bc he will start new projects when the old ones aren't finished yet, and will expect you to finish it on your own time. Regularly critiques your work offers advice. Easy's up on those who are artfully challenged.

Professor Holliday can be very frustrating. He dances around questions a lot and never fully explains the projects. He gives projects that seem very irrelevant to my major. He grades very harshly and grades on his opinion of your style. He also takes up lots of class time "explaining things" when he's actually just making things more confusing
