What Current Evolve Students are Saying
Jevin

The system isn't magic. What you're joining is a well thought out, meticulously planned program that emphasizes on deliberate practice. That means every time you take a lesson and do an assignment there is a clear goal, with each step bringing you closer to being able to draw and paint photo realistic pieces. The program funnels your hard work into accelerated results. So if you're looking for a program that rewards every hour you put in and you've always wanted to draw and paint photo-realistic pieces, there isn't anything else out there like this!

I've learned more in the past year with Evolve, than I have in 9 years of studio education.
Michael

I appreciate the thoughtfulness Kevin puts into the teaching as it really makes the concepts easy to grasp. His comments have really resonated with me.
Janette
USA
There is no way I could be doing this well without your course. I love it and it is a lifesaver for me. I can’t believe I hesitated to sign up for it at first, but it seemed too good to be true. I would never push myself this hard alone and I love the accountability that this course offers. You said in your welcome video that your students were like a family. I feel it, thank you.

1-on-1 Support, Feedback and Live Video Sessions
Never feel alone on your artistic journey.
Your experience with Evolve will be as close to the in-studio experience as possible, meaning you will interact 1-on-1 with instructors who will look over your work at each step. Feedback is given twice a day, Monday to Friday, making this the fastest home-study art program ever created.
You will have the opportunity to interact with the other students during several weekly live sessions to facilitate different time zones as well as speak directly with Kevin.
You Control the Speed of the Course
Evolve is designed to work with your schedule, and you can take as long (or as short) as you want.
The suggested pace for completing the program is ten hours per week, which includes both watching the instruction and doing the exercises.
At this pace, the entire foundation program can be easily managed in less than one year, and you will have all the skills necessary to create paintings like you see on this page.
You will always have access to the video instruction and if you need to take an extended break - that's no problem. You can pick up right where you left off at any time.

Begin Your Journey to Creating Head-Turning Art
Included in Your First Box:
This first block will lay the foundation for everything that you do as you progress through Evolve. You will learn to slow down and strive for perfection in everything you do while developing your artistic eye at the same time.
If you've studied art before the first block will be like nothing you have seen before. If you're new to art, you'll be in the best of hands.
The simple exercises raise the difficulty gradually while each fundamental principle is internalized not only by seeing but by following along and actually doing.
- OLD HOLLAND OIL PAINT
Makers of the finest paint in the world, since 1664. Custom mixed grayscale and two full-color palettes are hand-tailored to Evolve's program. - BRUSHES & PALETTE KNIFE
Working with proper tools is critical to your success. Evolve sources quality products to ensure you will be working with materials that fit your needs at each stage. - CANVAS & PALETTE PAPER
Sheets of canvas are provided for each assignment. A pad of neutral gray palette paper ensures proper color mixing. - COLD-PRESSED LINSEED OIL
