“Amid is a wonderful instructor. He teaches elements of composition, technique and artistry presented in a step by step manner at a pace that is easy to follow. His feedback is invaluable, offered in a supportive manner ideal for personal growth and exploration.  Having taken several workshops with Amid this past year, I highly recommend his workshops for all skill levels”.

“I have learned so much from Amid’s classes and had a lot of fun doing so!  His instructions are so clear and easy to follow. No matter what the subject is, he breaks the painting process down in easy steps. He is a fantastic instructor and painter and I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to take his classes all the way from Belgium (where he lives) to my living room. Thank you Amid and French Escapade! ”

“Amid El Haddad is a devoted, passionate watercolor artist who provides clear, easily understood instruction to achieve incredible, impressionistic results! In just two days of painting with Amid in the FrenchEscapade V.I.E.W class I was able to better understand the medium to effectively achieve the desired results. Much to my amazement both paintings demonstrated a vast improvement in my abilities directly related to his teaching. Amid is able to break down and convey manageable chunks of information, demonstrate his intentions and facilitate growth in his students. Thank you Amid for sharing your vast knowledge and expertise of watercolor painting!”
