Yes I definitely do but I'm not sure exactly what classes you offer or focus on. Lack of patience is at the top of it all ^_^ But I guess it's because I have too much to do I lack time to allot on what I love doing most. Second, SHADING... (I really think part of this is my lack of time and, therefore, patience). Third, WORKING ON WARDROBES (making it all look flowing and believable... something like that). Third, trouble building up my confidence and knowing that different artists have different styles and techniques so I don't have to pressure myself too much and struggle too hard to excel.

Lets take this one problem at a time.
1. I'm Irish and therefore know a thing or two about being impatient.Trust me this is worth being patient for if you want to do this professionally.Supprisingly art is the only thing I am patient with.
2.With shading ,think 3 dimesionally.Use a flashlight and shine it on different things, paying close attention to where the light hits the object and where it doesn't.The medium you work in will determine how realistic your art will be , but no matter what you use as you practice this your art will be more defined and believable.
3.Clothing is a pain in the a!@.Don't let it get to you.Look in magazines or better yet go to the mall or a park and start drawing the people you see.Remember that clothing folds at the joints and goes around the body so make sure the lines are curved to show that.
4.Above all else try and have fun with your art.It can be a good way to relax.Your art will improve in time.I hardly ever go anywhere without my sketch book.Practice as much as you can and you will get better.

My number one problem with practicing on shading is that I don't have the patience on practicing with stuff I don't want to spend time drawing like I don't really want to draw oranges or melons so it bores me. But Let me try this on my hand or something. Thanks for the pieces of advice ^_^ You teach Art or something?

Those notes I have are for classes I'm trying to do.Until I get my classes put together I was going to give advice here.They are going to be part of a website I'm working on.
Don't forget, the point behind art is to create things you like.

True. I actually got something I've been practicing on that maybe you can comment on but I have yet to upload (:
Why not consider being an "adviser" or critic instead? I honestly learn more from critic because I'm so visual I run through paragraphs and stare at pictures more. Plus my attention spans too short for reading things on my computer that I would probably read only 1 or 2 paragraphs and move on with my life (: Something like cater to another type of audience to give your class on..

I just uploaded a work in progress and hope to get a lot of inputs that might help before I finish it. Actually, I might end up finishing it before I get to see any critics.
I'll be moving them later to the scrap section but it's currently in my gallery just for possible ease of being seen and criticized.
