Here are some excerpts from recent emails:

‘Hi Jonathan, absolutely loved the class, perfect in every way.’

‘Don’t know how you do it – anyone can paint really, but to be able to teach art well is rare and genius. I really believe that. And you make it feel so easy!’

‘Thanks for yet another mind expanding session’

and in response to this online art tuition:

‘Dear Jonathan,

Thank you so much for your critique and suggestions. I am very open to ideas and will enjoy trying them out. Will keep you posted!’

‘THANK YOU – I’m thrilled with your responses, very helpful’

‘Your feedback was very helpful – particularly the examples of Cezanne’s work and the suggestion for an exercise which I have done – starting off well using one colour and then painting its opposite’
