Professor Faisal's class is the best art class I have taken in three years. I took Art 348 Digital Printing (no option in rating). His expertise and friendliness are incredible. He teaches extra skills and field trips, is helpful, and appreciates you. This class forms a community like no other, and you learn about literacy as an artist. 、Rate My Professors ↗

I can't believe Faisal has only 2 ratings, best professor/teacher I have ever had. I was perpetually mind blown by his knowledge, experience, kindness, supportiveness, etc etc. I would recommend to take one of his classes no matter what your degree is. His class changed my perspective and encouraged me to continue pursuing art.Rate My Professors ↗

It's a learning community seminar, so he's probably easier on this class than in his true art classes, but it's pretty easy and a lot of fun. It's interdisciplinary, so no one's judged on skill and everyone's encouraged to experiment & go out of our comfort zones.Rate My Professors ↗

If you need someone to really challenge your work, Faisal is the professor to go to. He is constantly playing "devil's advocate" which can be a little frustrating at times, but it also sparks a lot of growth. Faisal has turned my head upside down more than a few times and is one of the most complex conceptual thinkers in the program.Rate My Professors ↗
