Have you always wanted to make art but never actually get started because you’re afraid of not being good enough?
Or have you tried making art but are constantly comparing yourself to others and feel discouraged?
Perhaps you’ve been making art for years but now you just don’t seem to be able to get into that creative place where the magic happens and you feel blocked?
Take a look at some of the artworks made by my workshop students:

FAQs
-
When and where can I take this workshop?
This is a self-paced, online workshop that you can start at any time. Once you have bought it, you will have lifetime access to it, including any revisions and additions.
-
How much does it cost?
The workshop costs US$39
-
What supplies will I need?
You do not need to spend a lot of money on art supplies to take this workshop. You can start with just five different colours of acrylic paint, a soft black pencil and a surface to paint on. Acrylic paint comes in different sizes and quality, and the prices range depending on what you buy. You can start with cheaper craft acrylic, and move on to more expensive and higher quality paint when you feel ready to. You don’t have to buy canvas either, I offer lots of suggestions for keeping down the costs of art supplies in the workshop.
-
Can I take this workshop even if I've never painted before?
Yes you can! This workshop is for anyone who wants to explore their creativity in a more allowing way. The process is non-judgemental, forgiving and will help you gain confidence. No previous experience is required.

I've already been to one of your studio workshops. How is this online workshop different?
While I will be guiding you through the same process that I teach in my studio workshops, there are some differences worth noting:
- You can take the workshop at your own pace and in your own space.
- I have packed more information into this workshop than I can fit into a 2-day studio workshop.
- You have lifetime access to the online workshop, including any revisions or additions.
- You can share your experience in the online community (a secret Facebook group) and make new like-minded friends from around the world who are also on this creative journey.
-
Will I be able to connect with other people who are taking the online workshop?
Yes. There is a private Facebook group exclusively for students of this workshop where you can share your art, experiences, and ask questions.
-
Will I be able to ask you questions directly ?
Yes, I will participate in the discussion in our private Facebook group and will answer questions there at least twice a week.
