She allows you to persue your own creativity and never makes you feel like your ideas are not good. She does expect you to work. But she makes the studio feel like a family. It was probably one of the best classes I have ever had.

She is a great professor and cares about her students, as long as you keep her in the loop with what you are doing, she is more than willing to accommodate situations, I am glad I picked her over the other professors, some of my friends have others and listening to how rough their classes are it sucks.

I took this course for the summer and I wouldnt recommend taking this teacher again. Its very quiz heavy on reading boring art articles that you are quizzed on a lot. Take a different teacher if you can.

This class was extremely fun and helpful. I've had many art teachers, inside and out of school and college, and Kari is the ONLY one that I have learned something from and had a good time in her class. She's genuinely concerned about your benefit from her class and always helps you when you need it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Took her for Drawing I, best art teacher I've ever had. We'll critique our drawings with the whole class which is a great way to find areas to improve your art. You will have to pay a pretty penny for materials though, at least $100. But I've developed more as an artist from her class! She's awesome and is very passionate about her class!

Professor Breitigam was such a caring person! There are many quizzes that are done, usually 2 a week, or 1 a week with an assignment. On every assignment, she responds with the rubric to let you know why you got the grade you did. You have to read articles for the quizzes but it was overall a very easy class. You get 2 attempts on quizzes as well.
