I’m new to this program (1 month in). I absolutely love it. I have health issues and this is helping me work with my pain and get my mind into the right brain to help me heal my body and get out of the pain cycle. For anyone who has chronic pain and some type of health issues I encourage you to feel welcome to this program. They will totally work with you. There’s no rush, you’re on your own schedule. If you put any type of pressure on yourself to finish within a certain timeline, that will totally be self-inflicted. Please don’t do that. Please allow yourself lots of grace and time to do it on your own path. It’s totally self paced and I absolutely love it. The lessons, quality and structure are very good. it's really a great way to get yourself started as an artist. As the Milans will tell you, if you've ever had it in your heart, as a passion to be an artist, or to develop your artistic abilities... now is the time! Feel free to jump in because that's the kind of thing that just doesn't go away. There are so many people in the program who've said they've been wanting to be an artist since they were a child, Etc. I hear it over and over again where people deviated from being an artist because they were either told they couldn't do it or believed they couldn't succeed and be successful with it and maybe even they became a doctor or any other pathway that's not in the creative field necessarily (in the way they truly wanted to be). Then later on they circled back! It's a beautiful way to truly connect with your true self. I think creativity and art is a fantastic way to heal your body. That's my personal experience. Welcome 🤗 everyone is so friendly. You can make new friends too.

I graduated from the Legacy Mastery Program a few years ago. I absolutely loved the classes. The new program released and I decided to start from the beginning. I am loving it. Those new students are really in for an amazing ride. I can’t wait to see how my skills develop after this.

I've been a MP Student for just over 2 years now (Jan 2024). The reason elderly family member illness as well as personal health issues. I am thankful this is a self paced Program with lifetime access. As of 2026 the whole Program has changed. It is easier to follow along. Clearer and more concise in what the assignments are and what materials are needed. The textbook and syllabus is also clearer with more information and one could probably complete the program just using them alone. I started over after watching the first 2 videos in 2026 program. I had not gotten through all of Part 2 yet, so it wasn't a huge deal to start over. My only personal problem is when I originally joined they didn't have coaching included. So glad they changed that for others coming in now. Great Program you wont be disappointed. Just do it!

This was my first step into Acrylic, though I've used watercolors for 7 years or so, and Elli made it super easy! I really love the merge of realism and abstract! Hopefully I can sign up for the Master Course next year.

Wonderful experience and thank u! my portrait was selected for the prestigious exhibition at AIA Carnival in Hong Kong

It was step by step, no pressure, clear explanations of everything, notes with each step...I got my money's worth and I would recommend "How to paint a Beautiful Portrait Every Time."

Practice and getting some basic tools and guidelines for painting a portrait and use of oil. This is my second portrait with oil. I plan to do all five references given in the class. Thanks Ellie Susan

Great product
