How and why do my courses work?

My courses are sent to you in weekly lessons that keep you motivated and interested
​all the way to the end of the course. 
This is the secret of why you can learn to paint with me. You learn something new every week!
Each lesson builds on the one before, so you grow in confidence as you go along, and you will soon be amazed at how fast you are learning. 
The important thing is to actually have a go at the projects. The courses are very practical and you will learn by doing.
Each course includes the following elements:


​Audio Introduction
Each week there is an audio introduction to the lesson, explaining what you will learn and how to go about it.
The lessons build on what you have learned in the previous ones, so you are always increasing your abilities and gaining confidence in easy steps.


​Pages of printed instructions
Each lesson comes with pages of step-by-step instructions. You can either print these off and store them in a ring binder, or save them to your computer  so that you can refer to them at any time. 


​Video
Each lesson comes with a video, showing you exactly how to do it.  The videos are linked to the material in the lesson and are an essential part of the learning process. 
Watch the videos and then have a go yourself!


​Feedback
If you want to receive any feedback on your progress, then you can either email me and attach your painting, or post it on the Painting Posts facebook page, where other students can help you out or make helpful comments.

Three keys to success

Keeping motivated

This is the key to this unique way of learning. 
Because the course comes to you in regular weekly lessons, you will find yourself wanting to paint along with each one and the excitement of learning will be kept up. 

I can guarantee you will learn to paint with these regular lessons! And if you get stuck, you can even email me at any time with problems or questions.

Taking your time

Lessons are sent to you weekly but you can take the courses at your own pace. 
You don’t have to keep up with the weekly lessons, or if you find you have more free time available you can choose to go faster!  
Lessons are not time limited, so you can go to them whenever you like. And if you need a break for a few weeks, that's fine!

Each weekly lesson normally takes between 2 and 4 hours to complete.

Practicing 

Each lesson builds on the one before, so you grow in confidence as you go along, and you will soon be amazed at how fast you are learning. 
The important thing is to actually have a go at the projects. The courses are very practical and you will learn by doing.
