If you’re a painter – or if you want to be! – you know how frustrating it can be to start working on a piece and then hit a problem you just don’t know how to solve. You’re held back by what you don’t know, and if you don’t have the time or budget to quit working and enroll in art school, you might just stay stuck.
That’s why I’m so excited to introduce you to one of today’s most accomplished landscape painters, John Poon. Aside from the outstanding work he creates himself, John is also a gifted and inspiring teacher, one of the best I’ve encountered. And here’s what’s so amazing. John is inviting you to listen in on his virtual classroom, where you’ll see and hear everything up close as John offers real-time critiques of real student paintings in progress. This is where you’ll find your answers!
Critiques are absolutely critical to your progress as an artist. We’ve always honed our techniques through participating in real-time critiques of a fellow artist’s work. This is the time-honored and still the only way for a developing artist to learn exactly how to handle a specific challenge that arises when painting a canvas (or creating a pastel, drawing, or any other work).
John’s weekly critiques give you a community to work with – a group of like-minded people who are striving toward the same goals you are. Sharing your progress week by week is just plain priceless, and it’s what so many of us miss as we work remotely. John Poon’s virtual classroom is the place where you can leave the isolation behind and get the benefit of supportive eyes on your work in progress.
