Neat Stuff sticker club turns 1!

 


Today marks the very first birthday of the Neat Stuff sticker club! I can't believe it's already been a year we began this sticker journey! Tim is the sticker making expert and we've been making stickers since around late 2017. He left his lucrative (but also highly stressful) job in March of 2018 to be partners in my art business and we had no idea at the time that stickers would play a huge role in the fun we'd have on this journey together. 

In September of last year, I decided that each month, I'd do a themed logo sticker. It's really fun to see them all together and wow what a fun year. It would be hard to pick a favorite but Alice has my heart. And of course I love the cute witch!

The sticker club also consists of monthly videos where I teach you how to draw and paint some of the cuties inspired by the stickers you were sent.

I am having a huge sale for the Club members to celebrate the 1 year Birthday! If you are in the club, you can save 30% off in the shop. I'll be sending you an email with your coupon code.











Haven't joined the Club yet? Now is a perfect time! Next month, I'll have a video up teaching one of my favorite Alice characters, Tweedle Dee/Dum! Come join the fun!

Play in Paint begins TODAY! 

Let's play in Paint! I'll show you how I create depth and dimension with acrylic paint using my fingers and some brushwork to create rich, expression faces!


Are you ready to play in paint? Join me as I lead you into my painting process where I use my hands and play with making marks and color. We'll dive into building libraries of face, mark and paint studies that will strengthen your voice when you paint. We'll take risks with cardboard and celebrate happy accidents.


Patreon price is $33.00 (available for those on the $20 tier)

What the class includes:

  • faces studies - 3 face studies
  • painting prompts
  • mark making
  • 10x10" painting on wood board using the studies, marks, and prompts as our guides
  • painting on cardboard
  • 6 total videos ( the final painting is broken into two videos)
  • downloadable PDFs
  • lifetime access!

Class begins March 24th!

REGISTER!




FAQ: 

How long will I have access to the course? Lifetime access. 

Is this class for beginners? If you are familiar painting faces, then this will be perfect. I would suggest my Acrylic Girl for beginners course to complete first if you are an absolute first time in painting faces.

Can I substitute supplies for things I already have? yes indeed! Use similar colors to achieve this cute girl. The most important color will be the quinacridone nickel azo gold from golden.

supply list: will be emailed to you in the welcome message when you sign up!

I made a new journal!

 Hey friends! Happy Monday! I have been so inspired by Jennie Mae June lately and wanted to create a new journal inspired by her laminated cover journal.

I took a 9x12 laminating pouch and filled it up with glitter, stickers and washi tape and laminated it.

I used binding thread to stitch my papers together. I filled it with watercolor and sketchbook paper along with some deli paper to make it interesting. And then I tied some confetti tulle around to help keep it closed.

My favorite thing to add to journals is dangles and clips. It just makes me so happy.
