Welcome to Tato Tuts

Tato Tuts is an online mentorship program founded and run by Tato from ThirdPotato Illustrations. Each session consists of a four week lesson plan, where the student will hear lectures, receive live critique and redlines (critique that is drawn on a layer over the art in red), and be given an assigment to work on throughout the program. In the end, each student will have attained a level of personal growth and a one-of-a-kind art piece to show for it.

Lessons are held through Join Me and audio through Skype (webcams not required). Upon signing up, you'll be given access to my TatoTuts Skype address, and 10-30 minutes before class, I'll be signing on. Assignments turned in through Drop-Box. Classes are Sundays 7pm-8:30pm EST

Howdy! Thank you for everyone has attended Tato Tuts so far! I will be taking March off to focus on my convention appearance at Furry Weekend Atlanta, where I'll be out of town for a couple weeks to spend time with my sister down there as well. I hope to be doing some $10 one-time seminars during March, however, so do keep an eye out here for more information on that in March! thank you all!

Whoah, this is a really neat idea- I can't believe no one has thought of this before! I'm definitely interested, and most likely be signing up next month for a class!

Like I've said before, I think it's very nice of you to be giving advice/tips/guidance in character designing and I would really like to enroll but don't have the money for the time being but when I do get some extra, I'll definitely enroll! ^_^

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it n.n I'm thinking of opening up cheap one-time seminars actually! They'll basically be like $5 a ticket, and it'll just be a lecture sorta thing.
