Thanks for a great course! I found especially helpful the part about catching the tiny details of every face features as we all are different and how to transfer those details on the paper without loosing that uniqueness of a person was my personal challenge. Thanks again!

Alan Coulson presents a very interesting course that takes one step by step through the entire process of producing a portrait. His method of tuition is very enabling in that he presents a way in which anyone with the most basic level of skill could get started right away - he basically takes away the excuse for procrastination. Alan is such a gentle and encouraging soul that you will feel yourself to grow with confidence as you watch his course, even before you lift your pencil and brush.

Alan goes into great detail explaining his technique. He uses oil paint diluted with a good proportion of white spirit. Not all tutors recommend this as it’s quite toxic. The use of glazes was quite interesting. I looked at students’ final portraits and found none who had employed Alan’s technique, was this because you need great patience to make the tiny brush strokes? There’s no doubt that his portraits are stunning, but oil paint cries out to be blended not applied in with such restraint.
