Combined with a playful positive environment the SKY IS THE LIMIT to what you will learn … join me now for Mixed Media.

SELF-GUIDED CLASS

30 full days of inspiring exploration into the playful world of mixed media painting. This course will give you so many methods and materials as tools – and inspiration – to gently draw out your own style of painting.  In my studio classes I find the greatest joy in watching each student’s OWN style emerge and flow, and THAT is the focus of this course! The more go-to tools you have – the easier it becomes to find your self in your work. For over 20 years I have taught these methods and find great inspiration from each new student I meet! This class is a perfect for absolute beginners and more experienced artists alike.

Included in this 30 days of mixed media instruction:

  • building a series of paintings
  • creating rich surfaces and backgrounds
  • exploration of texture
  • questions and answers in our private facebook group
  • video instruction including students working in my own studio
  • downloadable materials
  • how to use printmaking techniques in your work
  • creative collage and paper making methods
  • harnessing composition and design elements in your work
  • building confidence through positive exercises
  • learning to let go of perfection
  • learning to love making an art journal
  • transfers, transfers, transfers!
  • working intuitively and spontaneously through play
  • adding your own photographs to a painting
