What was your primary motivation for purchasing this course? Achieve career goals
I am a retired graphic designer who has picked up portrait painting recently. I found Jonathan's course interesting, but it didn't further my knowledge much. I am at the point where practice, practice and more practice is needed. I think it would benefit someone not as far along.

It would be much better to see more demonstrations of what's being said. All very well sitting talking but most if us learn much better being shown what is meant. I'm only half way through but it's becoming tedious to continue.

Jonathan Yeo has kindled my enthusiasm for portrait painting by his lightness of touch and engaging manner. His expertise is clearly hard-won and solid, but he wears it lightly and shares all kinds of fascinating insights into his craft. It is also wonderful to watch him working during the course. Many examples are provided to illustrate the points he makes, and the depth and pace of the presentations is judged very well. It neither flags nor rushes. Above all, his un-fussy approach and infectious enthusiasm have really given me momentum to carry on practising, improving and enjoying my own art.
