    1. Faces have always been problematic for me. Interested in anything that helps me with defining the features and the emotions facial features convey

  2. Yay!!!! I can’t wait for this workshop! I am dying to focus on more figurative work. And I can’t wait to leave new portrait techniques as well!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

    1. I look forward to learning more about figurative drawing, the ability to bring out more of what is truly going on emotionally, physically, etc. I would love the opportunity to win a spot at this year long Art Class, so I can expand my artistic abilities and knowledge, leading me to teaching Art in the near future as well! Thank you!

      1. I love the idea of being part of an artistic community that work together to boost the confidence of each other, to be all that we can be artistically and learn together. Thank you for this opportunity.

      2. Oh wow, this course sounds amazing!!! I would love to have a yearlong learning in portraiture and figurative art which is a burgeoning passion yet terrifying for the uninitiated! I love the variety it is offering as well as style development, something I am needing to hone and this course is the perfect guidance down that creative path. Thank you so much Kara for offering this opportunity! I am subscribed and have shared on my fb page x

  4. I would love to win a spot! I don’t have much knowledge or experience with faces and figures in which I want to learn. Awesome line up of artists teaching the classes. This course sounds so exciting!

    1. Kara I need help in conveying emotion and figurative movement. I’m so looking forward to year 5. Yes 5. Thanks for the chance to win a free spot ❤️

  17. So excited about this course!
    I’m wanting to gain confidence and fluidity with painting portraits and figures…I haven’t drawn a figure since college…I’d love to improve my skills and techniques.

  24. I have your newsletter and I am familiar with your awesome classes!
    I will share on fb
    I would like to learn about figure drawing. A step by step approach would be quite helpful.

  26. I have shared on FB, I already get your newsletter. I would love to win a spot because faces are one of the areas I am working on this year…faces and finding my style. So far I have found that by trying out other people’s style in my journal, then examining how I felt about doing it and what I liked and didn’t like about it, I am learning to paint like me. A course focusing on faces might be exactly what I need to progress. Thank you for the chance to win a spot.

  28. Already on Newsletter =)
    And of course share on FB.
    Hm, next year, I would love to dive more into 1/2, 3/4 and full figures with some focus on detail, as in hands, feet perhaps

  31. I believe I already get your newsletter and I will share on facebook. I would love to win a spot because I am energized by the creative drive of others. Faces are my favorite thing to draw and paint yet they are quite elusive. One slight turn changes everything. One raised eyebrow changes everything. I desperately want to learn.

  32. I want to refine my style and work on portraiture with faces at various angles (not just straight on looking at the viewer). Already receive the newsletter and love it. Have registered for three classes over the last month. 🙂

  33. Thank you for this amazing opportunity, Kara! I would absolutely love to win a spot, because portraits are my favorite subject! As a young child I was always drawing – drawing portraits by references (of celebs) with graphite pencils. Graphite pencil is still my main medium, so I would really love to expand my mediums and be able to create (somewhat) ‘realistic’ portraits in for instance mediums such as pastel, watercolor and acrylics as well. Also, the line up of teachers is really amazing! <3

  34. Concentrated on portraits in this years LFI, have learned so much that your tantalizing suggestion of “style” is so very exciting. The teacher lineup looking inspiring and terrific. Hard to wait and already sharing it with friends.
    Never believed a single course could really change the art journey, but it has owned the mind, changed the process and made a huge difference in the result. So thrilled with this years course looking at 2017 LFI as well.

  37. I already get your newsletter, and have shared on Facebook , It would be marvellous towing spot on this course as I would love to find my own style and Learn portraiture and figure drawing, thank you Kara

  39. Also I shared on Facebook. I think you are the best! I have learned so much already. thanks for that and Greetings from Switzerland, And of course I would be happy to win a spot (smile). Mali

  41. I would love to work more on my style in 2020. I have LOVED all the years of LFI and can’t wait for another one!
    Shared on FB and get your newsletter. Thanks for the chance!

  42. i have never had a course in figure/faces and with this superb lineup of artists, it’s like a year long master class. just what i need. thank you so much.

  45. Kara,
    I’m part of your Let’s Face It 2019 and a number of the other classes you’ve offered this year. While I learned a great deal, there is so much more I’m eager to see and put into practice. You offer such value, support and opportunity in your courses. I am grateful for finding you and will always share this opportunity with others.

  48. I have been slowing working toward finding my own voice. Studying each visual element and searching for what pleases me and how I can incorporate it in my work. Everything presented will fit where I am at in my own process.

  52. I am ready to elevate my art with the art of the FACE and learning how to convey expressions, emotions, angles, and subtle turns of the smile, eye, and gesture. Thank you for this opportunity. I am residing in Yucatan Mexico this year and would love to be able to capture the culture with more grace and skill.

  55. I am anxious to learn more about skin tones and everything involved in creating portraits-they are my passion. I am thrilled to have discovered your website! The online method is far better than reading a book. Thank you for your creativity.

  59. Kara, I have told you before, I learn more in your classes than any of the classes I have taken and I have tons of room to grow! I will definately be joining for my fifth year!

  60. I have been with you since the beginning and would love to learn about figures… heck I love about anything that you do. Thanks for the opportunity to win a spot!! Hugs!!!

  64. Drawing faces since I was a little girl I’m now pushing 80 and still have not found my style. Would love to do more freelance without using a reference photo. I have limited funds so this is a great opportunity for me to continue with Marc my art. The opportunity Carole I post

  66. I love this class and right now I’m obsessed with faces. I’ve always wanted to take the class. I really need some work still on shadows and light. I need to feel more confident so I can just “go for it”. I would love this class I’m sure. Thanks for the opportunity to win. I’m going to copy the URL and share it that way because I can’t seem to find the Facebook share button. Thanks, Jeanne Champion

  67. Well, I’ve already learned so much from you and your wonderful co-tutors, Kara! I would like to continue learning to loosen up with my style, learn new techniques that I can incorporate into my own style, and interact with the other students and tutors.

  71. I want to learn to get to the essence of a portrait/ figurative as simply and quickly as I can. I notice often seems portrait painters take many, many steps to get to the essence. Can I learn both or more types/ styles of this work. Interested in abstract/ impressionistic portraiture/ figurative including composition and negative space. Thx!!

  73. I need to learn how to size and add expression to my faces.. Aging features is something I totally fail at 🙁 But I do love the learning process. Thank you all for the opportunity to win a place in this class. x

  76. What I want to learn next year? I’ve always wanted to draw humans. Not flowers, not doodles, not trees or scenery…Just humans. Teach me and I will learn.

  83. Thanks for putting together another amazing year of lessons Kara!
    I’m really looking forward to the style development in next years curriculum. Currently I’m feeling really stuck in limbo, knowing there is a lot inside that needs to come out, but I’m not sure how to develop my voice. So many amazing teachers to learn from, so many amazing styles and techniques to learn from, and their insight and exercises for developing our own styles – 2020 is going to be incredible! ❤

  84. Emotion and Age – bring on the squishy faces and wrinkles – enough of the niceties lets get to the meaty bits! Would love to see differing emotions and differences in age groups in portraiture, while i love all the beautiful thirty somethings, i have a bit of age on me and think it can be just as beautiful.

  85. I really want to work on fining my own style. I want to share with other artists, and get and share input in a constructive way. I just started painting again after about ten years off, so…I’m rusty. And, Ifind myself going in many ways, I think because I’m uncertain as to wh I am now. I just keep telling myself, paint from your heart!

  86. Excited for a new year of LFI, this will be my third!
    Developing my own style has been a priority for me as of late. Cant wait to hear what others have experienced on their journeys of finding their styles.

  87. Hi Kara

  94. I love variety….I hope to be introduced to new things. I also am thrilled you are show casing some of my favourite artists and teachers. It feels like home to me.

  100. I’d be happy painting a face that actually looks like a face. Proportions are a problem for me and I’m not any good with colour either. What a fantastic offer.

  103. I’m familiar with some of your instructors and can’t wait to meet the rest! Joined your newsletter, posted on FB and here’s my comment, Kara Bullock, you rock lady!

  104. Let’s Face It 2016 was my first ever online workshop. It is also the course in which I developed my love for painting faces. Would love to win a spot in the 2020 edition to further develop myself.

  107. This coming year I’d love to work on painting a likeness, creating dynamic compositions, playing with angles and points of view and using more mixed media.

  108. Hi!! I posted this on FB! I’m signed up for the newsletter! And now I’m crossing my fingers that I win a membership or scholarship!!!! I would LOVE to learn from this amazing line-up of artist/instructors. I mainly draw the figure in charcoal and really want to learn different mediums and different techniques. Thank you for the opportunity to win!!!

  113. Awesome giveaway! I’d like to learn more about drawing eyes & learning more about how to set them apart to look more natural. I will post your giveaway info on FB. Thanks for the awesome giveaway opportunity.

  116. Hi Karen, I would love to learn more about colour theory and colour mixing to get correct skins tones. I would love to loosen up and learn how to get a good likeness. I am already a newsletter subscriber. Fb shared.

  121. Thanks Kara, for the opportunity to win a spot on the new LFI! Last year has been hard and energy-consuming, so I missed many lessons of 2018 and 2019. However, I will be on board in 2020! What I most want to learn is how to keep going when you hit a plateau in your art, and how to loosen up more. I also would love to learn to portray different angles and emotions from not only form reference but also from my imagination.

  127. I’m coming back for year number five with LFI! It has been a fantastic journey, and I am incredibly grateful for the amazing lessons and generous teachers that have shared their talents. My main focus for the coming year will be to continue to develop (and lovingly accept) my own style. Seeing and trying the diverse skills offered by dozens of instructors in multiple mediums has provided the opportunity to discover what feels natural in my own expressive painting. Thanks so much, Kara. Did I mention that I would love to win a free spot for round number five?

  128. This course looks amazing! Have shared to Facebook and already signed up to newsletter. I am at the beginning of my drawing journey, so I am looking to learn everything!! The artists involved are fantastic.

  133. I joined LFI 2019 and stumbled with my inner critique.. did not progress as I expected and don’t get along every week. Very hard to start for myself.

    So next year next try! I do not want to give up.
    I would love to be part of LFI2020 and win a seat ?

  136. I love portraits, and I love expressive art. I’ve been trying to add emotion and expression to my portraits, but I always get caught up on details and realism. I need to loosen up, explore new techniques and “unlearn” certain habits and approach to my work.

  139. I would love to learn to use colour as I instruct those who are physically and mentally disabled and would love to light up their lives with colour! I have subscribed and popped your link on FB. Looking forward to the postings!

  140. I’ve never participated in Lets Face it, but looking forward to to next years course! I would love to learn more about creating faces that are loosen and expressive. That capture the essence of a person that’s more representational of who they are rather than a tight exact painting. I’m hoping to win of course 🙂

  141. As a child, I loved to draw and would make art every chance I could get. I would love to get back in touch with my inner self and explore new ways of expressing my art with the guidance of all the artists participating in Lets Face it 2020.

  145. Thank you so much to everyone that has entered my give away over the past month! I appreciate you all so much and wish I could give away free memberships to you all! The lucky winners of this give away include the following people:
