Learning to paint can feel like trying to find your way in the dark.  Sometimes, putting your brush down and getting a big picture view of how the whole thing works is just what you need.


​CONQUER THE BASICS 
​


Conquer the Basics is really a "big picture" conversation plus hands on exercises.

I share ALL the things I wish someone had told me when I was starting out.  It was first delivered live as a series of online workshops.

I've poured all the goodness into 20 minute video clips, so you can get through it in 20 Minute Studio style... fast, fun and easy to understand.

No prior skill needed.  Suitable if you are brand spanking new to painting and can't draw to save your life.  There is also plenty to sink your teeth into if you have been painting a while and are wanting to take your work beyond step by step tutorials and develop your own ideas into paintings with wow factor.  
​
​
​THE SERIES INCLUDES
​6 WORKSHOPS

I'll SHOW YOU HOW TO
​
  • Figure out what you REALLY want to paint
  • Learn what you need to create art you love
  • Stay focused so you can improve more quickly​
​
We'll focus on a different skill set for each workshop to set you up for success.  

I often see people sign up for advanced workshops only to discover they are overwhelmed because they didn't understand some of the basics.

These courses were created to help fill that gap. 

Here's a look at what CONQUER THE BASICS​ covers. 

Each workshop features about an hour of content.​
​Tips on how to make time & space for your creativity.  Learn how beliefs, permission & affirmation play a huge role in your success.
My simple 3 Step drawing process.  We'll talk tools, materials and technique for achieving realism.  Even if you can't draw stick figures!
Learn about colour terms, colour mixing and colour temperature.  My simple process for mixing the colour you want every time.  
Design better paintings by learning secrets of the masters.  Discover how to design for wow factor in your painting.​
A creative process that helps you move from idea to finished painting with confidence is key. 
​Some of the steps in a strong creative process might surprise you!​
Sharing your art with the world can feel intimidating.  We'll talk through ways to prepare for putting your art "out there"​,  from sharing with family and friends to exhibiting and selling your art.

The courses are hosted right here on my website.

After payment, you'll be able to log in and work on the course whenever you like.
​
The content applies to oil, acrylic and watercolour.
I also have a dedicated Colour Course 
The Colour Course has more detailed information than Conquer the Basics as we focus totally on Colour.  It also includes printable colour charts and shows you step by step how to create a 3 dimensional colour model to help you really get your head around colour mixing. 

You can complete the course in acrylic, oil or watercolour.  

The 5 modules are sorted into really short video clips to keep you moving forward easily through the content, which is about 3 hours worth.

I'll help you learn colour terms and practice colour mixing and suggest ways to consolidate this new knowledge on a few projects.  You'll gain the skills to mix the colours you need to create better paintings. You'll feel confident when artists talk about colour that you really know what they are talking about. This is so helpful when learning from other artists in conversation or advanced workshops.  Colour is an exciting topic and it's smart to understand it right from the get go.

Taking skills one-at-a-time and step-by-step  will increase your joy in the journey.  It equips you to understand and enjoy the process of learning and improving.  My goal is to help you have fun and find your confidence.  It takes time to paint out the colour charts but they provide a long lasting resource to help you in your painting.

It is my hope that these courses set you free in your drawing, colour mixing & design so you enjoy  your painting journey more.

Have fun!  I can't wait to hear about what you are learning and creating.
