she is a great professor that loves her work. her exams are short answer and fill in the blank. she gives you the answers ahead of time, but she grades harder because of that. BUY THE WORKBOOK, it really helps keep notes organized. did not read the text book, it's not really needed. i did hear people say it clarified a few things for them though.

It"s been many years since my classes with Pat Craig at Saddle back, in fact I was pregnant with my now 18 year old son. I was hoping she was still at Saddle back so my children would be able to learn about art through her eyes. I went in with the idea of just checking off some units, but left with an appreciation for many areas of the art world.

Seriously an awesome teacher. Really loves what she teaches and her review before exams is literally the exam word for word.

I enjoyed taking this class, especially with Pat. She is a really nice professor who loves what she teaches and she does a very good job at doing it! She gives you a review before tests and they help A LOT. Gives extra credit.. I recommend anyone to take her!

Pat is a great teacher! :D She really gave me an interest in art when i thought i would hate it. She is fun, makes the class easy if you pay attention to her lectures and always willing to help you if you ask in the right ways. She is really approachable and makes the class interesting. Take her! :)

She is a really good teacher and knows what she is talking about. She always has a lesson prepared and is there before class starts. Do the homework assignments because they are really easy. Show up to class and take notes and do the study guides and you will get A. Highly recommend!

Taking Art 101 with her is so easy! Follow her instructions, do all your assignments, come to every class and pay attention you will pass! She gives you all the Q/A you need for the exam. I thought it was drawing class but not bad art history! Def recommend!
