NEW RULES FOR CONTESTS STARTING IN MAY

[Kat]

Sounds like a great change to the contests, and I can't wait to see what you guys come up with for additional subscriber benefits!

[Jason Bowen]

@Lee-White yeah I'm at a point where I just need to paint a lot without video lessons at the moment, but Im sure I will sub again. You guys broke my heart last time when you stopped youtube crits so I will get over this don't worry...

[evilrobot]

@Lee-White for me this adds a lot of value for the subscription members! Very cool

[Charlie Eve Ryan]

Awesome!!!

[Coley]

This is really fantastic!

[WindyWyoGal]

Great idea! I’m looking forward to the changes!!!

[DaveLeekArt]

This is a great idea. I always enjoy checking out the winners of these contests but a video critique, especially with draw overs would be next level and much more enjoyable and informative. Looking forward to next month!

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@Lee-White Hi! This sounds awesome. However, can those who are not currently enrolled like myself still be able to watch the critique? Like on youtube or something? I am planning to subscribe soon though once i’ve resolved my present commitments.

@nyrrylcadiz @Lee-White I was going to ask that too as i'm not a subscriber yet myself, so it's a shame we can't take part in the contests but it would still be really cool to watch the critiques

@hannahmccaffery @nyrrylcadiz Lee wrote on nr.3: The video crits will only be available to active subscribers...

[xin li]

Great stuff. Thank you for doing this. Video crits plus Draw-overs are the best.

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@MichaelaH yeah I hope they’ll reconsider

[MissMushy]

Thanks so much guys! The draw over crits will be particularly helpful and a great incentive to get back into the contests. And the added value to subscribers is great!

@MichaelaH @nyrrylcadiz me too

[Elizabeth Rose]

@MichaelaH Yeah, same

[Lee White]

@Squirrelsize @hannahmccaffery @nyrrylcadiz We would love to have you come on board and be a student at SVS. We have a ton of new things planned (including a whole children's book series of classes!). As a subscriber you can enter the contests and see the crits. You also get access to almost 100 videos! We are a school first and foremost and we really want to make our students happy first. That means giving them access to exclusive content and benefits that aren't available anywhere else. We hope you guys will join us! : )

[Lee White]

Hey, wanted to mention that in addition to the stuff I wrote above, there is going to be a new subscriber area here on the forums! It's going to have demos and all kinds of stuff. It will contain extras to our video classes such as new assignments, drawing challenges, crits, and other goodies. Maybe even discounts on software and hardware!!!

[Charlie Eve Ryan]

@Lee-White It is SO worth being an SVS subscriber and your podcast is fantastic! Really awesome to watch SVS grow! You guys make it possible for anyone regardless of income, time restraints, etc to get a stellar art education!

[Kat]

@Lee-White OMG that sounds wonderful! Very excited to hear about all the extras, that sounds like just what I need to help me figure out how to proceed. Sometimes I feel like I'm just swimming around randomly in a very big lake, and not actually reaching a destination. So happy to continue as a subscriber!

@Lee-White You guys just keep on giving. Great value for money. Well better than Netflix! I just drank 6 less coffees a month to get on-board.
