"I was looking for an art tutor that would help me create and review my art for college portfolios, and I am extremely happy with everything Mikey has done to help me! He has always helped critique my art as I work on it and catch things that I have missed myself. I came in without much of an idea of what I would need to learn to improve my art, and everything new that he's taught me has been useful to know. As I've gotten closer to submitting stuff to art colleges, he's even helped review and edit my college essays with me which has been so helpful! I've always enjoyed learning art from him and also seeing what he's been working on as an artist himself. He's flexible and is a great listener. As someone who takes lessons with him over Zoom, I've never felt being online has negatively impacted my learning experience. I feel like I've learned just as much as if I was with him in a studio in person. 10/10 will continue to learn art from Mikey!" - Kira S.

"Mikey is friendly and patient, an excellent teacher. I am interested in portraiture and have been devoting time to sketching family members. Stuck on some technical issues, I got in touch with Mikey and had a lesson at his place of residence. I've had a lot of trouble sketching hair (in particular) and I truly gained a lot of insight from Mikey's teaching." - Len H
