“Jonathon Yoe’s, Portrait Painting had a good approach and balance, discussing what makes and how to create a good portrait painting. Intro of two chapters went straight into the subject, with a little history lesson. Jonathon’s journey/ self-information was tucked in mid-way of the course at chapters 10 and 11 and it was well timed and just the right length. The "Reveal" chapter 25 was excellent, artist and subject discussed the minute detail of what makes an outstanding portrait and how a small change or single brush stroke can alter the whole feel. Also, learning about how the sitter and third party interpret what they see in a portrait painting was very good. I learnt a lot, but I felt the course needed some practical tutoring chapters showing actual techniques on the canvas, colour palettes, etc. this would have elevated this course above very good to brilliant”
