Hey I wanted to stop in and give you a heads up for what the oil pastels mini course lessons will be. I just filmed an additional lesson so now there will be 4 lessons with 6 videos.


I love using the gray paper pad from Paper Fashion. It really showcases the oil pastel color work.





here are the other lessons in this class:




We will be using Sennelier oil pastels. (supply list of exact colors and other supplies will be emailed to you once you sign up.

All good things must come to an end.....

After a full, fun year of watercolor.... 80 videos of girls, animals, flowers, food.... I have decided to close the chapter of the Watercolor Club. I like to think of endings of new beginnings full of possibility! I think there is a freshness to beginning again. This shift comes after being led here and listening. After the 3rd prompting, I knew it was time. To continue would be an "easier" route, but I feel I must listen to where Spirit leads me. So here we are at the end of a fantastic year of creating in our journals. I thought I'd do a short video of me going through my journal and all the projects and lessons. If you joined in, a HUGE thank you! If you haven't joined in and are just finding out about it, I do have a lifetime access class of ALL of the content! If you do the calculations, that is around $2.36 for each video. Such a great deal and you get lifetime access to work at your own pace.




here are some of my favorite lessons:

Here are a few samples of the class. These are just examples of the type of work we'll be creating:
FAQ: 
Is this class beginner friendly ?   This class is geared towards all levels of artists. If you are just starting to paint faces, I would start with draw and paint a girl or Find your girl before taking this class.
How long will I have access to the course? Lifetime access. Videos are downloadable
How many art supplies will I need? I've kept the supply list super simple and short. Feel free to use oil pastels you already have on hand. Just make sure that they are true oil pastels and NOT the water soluble oil pastels. We will be using the sennelier oil pastels.
Will there be a Facebook group? No sorry. we will share in the classroom and through instagram.
Can I receive a refund ? Due to password sensitivities, I cannot offer refunds  once you sign up.
How do I sign up? When you click the registration button, you'll be directed to Ruzuku where I hold all my classes. It will prompt you to create an account (if you've never taken a class from me) and then pay. Once payment is received, you can access your library of classes in my classroom. Ruzuku is super user friendly and I chose this platform specifically for this reason. 
**SUPPLY list with links will be emailed to you 1 week before class starts.

Art Ruin

ART RUIN!
 let's ruin some art!


I have been ruining lots of art lately. This ruin process takes me further and stretches my creative muscles. Do I fail and ruin when I could have left it alone? Sure, but I am trying to work through my fear of "ruining it" and "spending all this time on something". Art is about the process. It is about going on and ruining something. Then go further. I hope you enjoy this process video.

This video is offered in real time in my Watercolor Club Year 1 class available August 1st.
