Meet Jonathon
I live between the coast and countryside in Lincolnshire, with my husband and cat. I am a British furniture artist, home stylist and content creator. I love sharing my passion for home making by teaching painting workshops in my online Painted Love Academy.

We have 13 online courses that you can purchase, all come with video tutorials and guides on what you need.
We also have a 6-week Masterclass course that combines all of the courses, for a money-saving cost.
“You are amazing, don’t ever wonder why I invested in your academy. You are a wonderful teacher with so much energy to share with all those willing to listen.”

“Jonathon, as always you have succeeded to totally blow me away with your techniques! I have so enjoyed every one of the Master Class videos and instruction. Thank you so much for including all of us in your painting processes.”
