Students Testimonials

Like many others, I came to Master Sanjeewee's class with zero experience in dip pen sketching. Having previously explored watercolors with him, I was excited to try a new medium. Master Sanjeewee's teaching style is truly exceptional. He breaks down complex techniques into easy-to-understand steps, making the learning process smooth and enjoyable, even in an online format. For anyone interested in a structured approach to mastering dip pen sketching, particularly for architectural subjects, I highly recommend this course!

I joined Mr.Seneviratne’s Dip Pen & Ink Class with Excitement since I had no clue, how to use a Dip Pen. He explained the history and about the architectural structure we were to sketch and very smoothly guided us through the basics to extremely complicated stuff making them look very easy to sketch and made it more meaningful. This Master has the ability to willingly part with his knowledge, with ease. I would recommend this course to anyone who is willing to be committed and learn.

I had the privilege of being a student of Sanjeewee Sir in the Architectural Drawings Dip Pen class series. Initially, I had no experience with a dip pen, only an interest. He transformed that into a skill. His teaching style and passion for art were evident from the start. His extraordinary technical skills and ability to simplify complex concepts are outstanding and his own. He encourages creativity and individual attention, making learning enjoyable. I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to learn from him and witness his exceptional talent. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in dip pen sketching.
