Jason Porteous

Hi as a practicing professional Artist and Art Instructor for over three decades, I bring a wealth of experience, knowledge and ability to impart in my classes. Classically trained in the sound, time tested methods of fine-art painting and design; I provide a good solid foundation to beginners, or help strengthen and develop existing skills for those seeking to improve under the guidance of a seasoned, top-class Artist. With applied knowledge of a wide range of techniques and styles in both painting and design, I can well guide a prospective Student to achieve their artistic vision and goal. As a practicing Painter, I have direct intricate knowledge of techniques, styles, materials, and much more. I offer a first class training in the skill and creativity of Art-making, wether in dry media such as pastels, charcoal, graphite etc.; in painting with Oils, Acrylics, Watercolour, and more. I am also very knowledgeable in the history of Art; it’s periods and movements to the present day. My experience covers many styles and genres from Classical to modern, in all the categories wether figurative, landscape, abstract etc. Should you choose to select me as your Art Tutor I can very confidently say I will provide you with a most interesting, engaging, skill-packed training course where you will not only learn much but have superior results in real terms.
Look forward to rewarding, enjoyable Art sessions with you!
