I have taken many painting classes and Wilson is by far the best teacher I've had. He always makes everyone feel like they can paint and they have talent. You walk away with a beautiful painting everytime. He's very patient and encouraging. His paintings are wonderful and I truly enjoy his classes. -- Janet, Queensbury, NY

Wilson is very helpful to his students. He makes sure they go home with a painting they can be proud of. -- Jean, Abany, NY

I entered the class with assorted paints, brushes and a blank canvas emerging four hours later with an amazingly beautiful painting which hangs in our living room to this day. 2 years and seven paintings later, I would tell anyone, anyone, that Willie Bickford is a terrific artist, but even more important to those of us with zero talent, he is an incredible instructor. -- Dave, Albany, NY

This approach lends me a great deal of versatility and yields some very interesting results ..."
