Sue’s portrait tutorial is packed with information. There’s guidance on the tools, pastels and paper best suited to painting portraits as well as loads of videos focussing on individual aspects of the face such as eyes, hair etc. In addition there are even helpful guides for painting babies, older people and people wearing glasses to name a few. I can’t think of anything that has not been considered. Sue’s written instructions are clear and concise, including options for pastel types etc. The videos Sue has created to demonstrate how to paint individual aspects of a portrait or examples of a couple of portraits are of an extremely high quality. They are easy to follow and again the explanation and instructions are excellent. Sue is an excellent teacher who offers encouragement and support to all who sign up/follow her. Sue’s weekly tutorials have really improved my understanding of pastels and my artwork has developed too. I even enrolled on the Horse Study course too as I just can’t get enough of her expertise…. Thanks Sue!
Sue is a very talented artist and I found her lessons professional, well-resourced, full of detail and thoroughly enjoyable. She is generous in sharing useful and practical tips that might otherwise take years to discover. Sue has given me the confidence to have a go and all the resources to guide me through. A number of helpful bonus tutorials have unexpectedly landed in my email inbox since my course – showing her commitment to supporting her pupils and the value she places on their learning.
