About Course

A critique is not about us telling you what is wrong, it is a conversation about colour, space, direction, composition, design, values, brushwork, focal points, areas of rest, balance, movement, proportion, story and much more.
 
Every second Tuesday of the month, I host painting critiques for participants. Each student can submit up to two pieces for critique before the live session. Submissions are accepted up to the day before the critique to ensure I have time to make a full assessment.
 
I review the artwork and make adjustments in a photo editing software, allowing you to see exactly what I mean when discussing adjustments. Sometimes, it’s as simple as tweaking a value; other times, it involves reconstructing the piece for a better composition. Join today and get started seeing how to improve your paintings!
